- Ambient nano and ultrafine particles from motor vehicle emissions: Characteristics, ambient processing and implications on human exposure (2008, background): “The study by Zhu et al. (2002b) suggested that coagulation is more important than atmospheric dilution for ultrafine particles and the reverse is true for large particles.”
- Potential Role of Ultrafine Particles in Associations between Airborne Particle Mass and Cardiovascular Health (2005, background): “No particle data were available, but it is again important to note that outdoor CO at sites close to dense traffic is highly correlated with UFPs (Zhu et al. 2002).”
- Traffic Related Air Pollution, Particulate Matter, and Autism (2013, neutral): “The near-source trafficrelated air pollutant mixture has a large spatial variation, returning to near-background daytime levels beyond this distance.(8,9) Herein, we report associations of autism with estimates of exposure to the mixture of trafficrelated air pollution and with regional measures of ”
- Airborne Particulate Matter and Human Health: A Review (2005, background): “Zhu et al. (2002a) have shown that the airborne concentrations of CO, EC, and particle number are much greater at a site on a Los Angeles freeway than a short distance away ( Figure 8 ).”
- Childhood Incident Asthma and Traffic-Related Air Pollution at Home and School (2010, background): “Several previous studies have found that the largest gradients in traffic-related pollutants occur within 150 m from roadways (Gilbert et al. 2003; Zhu et al. 2002), and variability has often been best explained by traffic volume within 300 m (Briggs et al. 2000; Gilbert et al. 2003; Ross et al.…”
- Traffic, Susceptibility, and Childhood Asthma (2006, background): “Residential distance to a major road was categorized as < 75 m, 75–150 m, > 150–300 m, and > 300 m, based on results of previous studies showing markedly increased exposure and risk of asthma within 75 m of large roadways, which decreased to background levels by 150–300 m (Gilbert et al. 2005; van V”
- Environmental behavior and ecotoxicity of engineered nanoparticles to algae, plants, and fungi (2008, background): “Zhu et al. (2006) found that particle number concentration measured 30 m downwind from the freeway was 80% of the previous daytime measurements (e.g., 1.5 9 105 versus 1.1 9 105 particles cm-3).”
- Near-roadway air quality: synthesizing the findings from real-world data. (2010, background): “Some of the most frequently cited studies using real-world 20 observations (Zhu et al. 2002a; Zhu et al. 2002b) show substantial pollutant reductions by 80 m 21”
- Exposure Assessment for Atmospheric Ultrafine Particles (UFPs) and Implications in Epidemiologic Research (2005, background): “Emission inventories suggest that motor vehicles are the primary direct emission sources of fine and UFPs to the atmosphere in urban areas (Hitchins et al. 2000; Zhu et al. 2002b).”
