How to conduct local level air quality dispersion modelling of locality based travel emissions. I have population level transport emissions of a locality, I want to estimate health impact of these emissions on the local population within that specific locality only.
You have prepare exposure sceenary for specific group of population living in evaluated area (Exposure handbook of US.EPA).Or you can search for time scheedule of persons living there. As the result you will have time spent in isolinies of concentration levels. And then you can use dose/response function.
e.g. from HRAPIE -project from 2014 or from US EPA IRIS database, or from TOXNET.
Hi Eva,
Have you considered the U.S. EPA Stochastic Human Exposure and Dose Simulation (SHEDS) model? Information on the model can be found here (https://www.epa.gov/chemical-research/stochastic-human-exposure-and-dose-simulation-sheds-estimate-human-exposure).
You could utilize the Consolidated Human Activity Database (CHAD)
