BLACK CARBON HEALTH EFFECTS STUDIES

Motivation

BC is a harmful pollutant with significant adverse effects on human health. The Aethalometer is a valuable tool in monitoring black carbon levels and aiding in healthrelated research. By providing accurate and real-time data, it supports efforts to understand and mitigate the health impacts of black carbon pollution. This application note provides an overview of the health implications of black carbon and highlights the use of the Aethalometer in studying these effects.

OTHER
APPLICATIONS

Aerosol Magee Scientific instruments are deep underground to monitor diesel exhaust in mines and at the Base Camp of Mt. Everest to measure the regional pollution of remote locations. Our instruments are used at research stations from the Amazon Jungle to the Sahara Desert; from Spitzbergen to the South Pole. Our instruments are installed in agency stations from San Francisco to Shanghai, from Dublin to Delhi, and everywhere in between. They are used for fundamental research, air quality monitoring, environmental engineering, and other applications.
