Editorial Board Members' Collection Series: Air Quality Assessment and Management, 2nd Edition

Dear Colleagues,

Air quality and its management continues to be a significant scientific and environmental policy issue around the world at local, national, and international scales. Degraded air quality is now known to have many health, environmental, and economic impacts, leading to increasingly urgent efforts to understand and mitigate these effects. Broadly, these concerns encompass greenhouse gases, fine particulate matter, volatile organic compounds, nitrogen and sulfur oxides, tropospheric and stratospheric ozone, atmospheric transport and chemistry, and indoor aerosolized pathogens. Research and its dissemination continue to be needed in these and related, interacting fields to facilitate continuing advances in air quality improvement around the world. 

This Special Issue requests contributions focused on the understanding and improvement of air quality in any context, including reductions in infection transmission. These contributions may cover topics such as the modelling of the chemistry and transport of pollutants, analysis of air pollution impacts, new source-reduction or emission-control technologies, the identification and quantification of diverse sources of air pollutants, or policy developments that impact air quality. Advances in any of these areas are welcome as interest grows in mitigating the health effects of indoor environments.
