; Calzolai, G.; Nava, S.; Chiari, M.; Alastuey Urós, José Andrés; Querol, X.; Gibbons, W. (European Geosciences Union, 2013)
The regular eastward drift of transboundary aerosol intrusions from the Asian mainland into the NW Pacific region has a pervasive impact on air quality in Japan, especially during springtime. Analysis of 24-h filter ... -
Determinación mineralógica del material particulado inorgánico en suspensión en la atmósfera de Castellón
(Sociedad Geológica de España, 1995)Mineral phases in the inorganic particulate matter present in the atmosphere of Castellón, a city located on the Mediterrenean coast, are characterized. Samples of the atmospheric particles were collected using a medium ... -

A long-term series (2001–2008) of chemical analysis of atmospheric particulate matter (PM10 and PM2.5) collected in the city of Huelva (SW Spain) is considered in this study. The impact of emission plumes from one of the ... -
New considerations for PM, Black Carbon and particle number concentration for air quality monitoring across different European cities
Reche, C.; Querol, X.; Alastuey Urós, José Andrés; Viana, M.; Pey, J.; Moreno, T.; Rodríguez Sánchez, Sara; González, Y.; Fernández Camacho, Rocío; Rosa Díaz, Jesús de la; Dall'Osto, M.; Prévôt, A. S. H.; Hueglin, C.; Harrison, R. M.; Quincey, P. (European Geosciences Union, 2011)
In many large cities of Europe standard air quality limit values of particulate matter (PM) are exceeded. Emissions from road traffic and biomass burning are frequently reported to be the major causes. As a consequence of ... -

Origin and speciation of major and trace PM elements in the Barcelona subway system
Font, Oriol; Moreno, Teresa; Querol, X.; Martins, Vania; Sánchez-Rodas Navarro, Daniel Alejandro; Miguel, Eladio de; Capdevila, Marta (Elsevier, 2019)
Wear in train and rail components in the Barcelona subway system includes brake pads, catenary wires, wheels, railways, and motor brushes. These components were characterised to evaluate their contribution to ambient ... -
Size distribution and chemical composition of metalliferous stack emissions in the San Roque petroleum refinery complex, southern Spain
Sánchez de la Campa Verdona, Ana María; Moreno, T.; Rosa Díaz, Jesús de la; Alastuey Urós, José Andrés; Querol, X. (Elsevier, 2011-06)
We demonstrate that there is great variation in the size range and chemical composition of metalliferous particulate matter (PM) present within petrochemical complex chimney stacks. Cascade impactor PM samples from seven ... -
