Comparison of Geostatistical Interpolation and Remote Sensing Techniques for Estimating Long-Term Exposure to Ambient PM2.5 Concentrations across the Continental United States.

BACKGROUND: A better understanding of the adverse health effects of chronic exposure to fine particulate matter (PM[sub 2.5]) requires accurate estimates of PM[sub 2.5] variation at fine spatial scales. Remote sensing has emerged as an important means of estimating PM[sub 2.5] exposures, but relativ...
