An environmental justice report by the Washington State Department of Ecology’s Air Quality Program analyzing air pollution impacts in South King County communities. The report provides demographic data, air quality information, and health impact assessments for overburdened communities highly impacted by air pollution.

In this study, we modeled concentrations of fine particulate matter(PM2.5) and ozone(O3) attributable to precursor emissions from individual airports in the United States, developing airport-specific health damage functions (deaths per 1000 tof precursor emissions) and physically-interpretable regression models to explain variability in these functions.
