Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Air pollution, driven by complex interactions between anthropogenic emissions, natural sources, and meteorological dynamics, poses significant threats to human health and the environment. Effective monitoring and accurate modelling are crucial for understanding its sources, distribution, and impacts. While significant advancements have been made in monitoring technologies and modelling approaches, key scientific gaps persist in air pollutant transport mechanisms, interaction with meteorology, source apportionment, and dynamic health risk assessment. This Special Issue, “Monitoring and Modeling of Air Pollution”, aims to collect cutting-edge research in these fields. We seek contributions on advanced monitoring technologies, including sensor networks and satellite remote sensing, as well as innovative modelling approaches like machine learning and high-resolution simulations. Manuscripts submitted to this Special Issue may include, but are not limited to, the following topics:
- Physical and chemical characteristics of air pollutants and their interplay with meteorological conditions
- Machine learning and high-resolution simulations of air pollutants
- Emission characteristics and health risk assessment of indoor-outdoor air pollutants
- Multi-source apportionment of atmospheric pollutants
- Aerosols-Atmospheric boundary layer interaction

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Toxics is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
