GDEH faculty members Drs. Donghai Liang, Stefanie Ebelt, and Jeremy Sarnat just published a paper in Environmental Research on a large prospective field study in Atlanta examining climate change-related impacts on outdoor air pollution infiltration. Future temperature was projected to increase by 2.1 C in Atlanta under RCP 4.5 intermediate scenario, resulting in notable changes in particle infiltration ratio, with enhanced seasonal differences and stronger increase in future particle infiltration projected among naturally ventilated houses.
