Based on emissions of | Mortality rates of lung cancer, cardiopulmonary diseases and acute respiratory infections due to urban air pollution (PM10 and PM2.5 concentration levels) are derived using the {{abbrTemplate|GBD}} method ([[Mathers and Loncar, 2006]]). Based on emissions of NO<sub>x</sub>, SO<sub>2</sub> and black carbon (Component [[Emissions]]), PM10 concentration levels are determined using the Global Urban Air quality Model ([[GUAM model]]). This model originates from the GMAPS model ([[Pandey et al., 2006]]), which determines PM10 concentration levels by economic activity, population, urbanisation and meteorological factors. PM2.5 concentrations are obtained using a region-specific PM10–PM2.5 ratio. Based on these levels and the exposed population, mortality attributable to causes of death is derived using relative risks obtained from epidemiology studies ([[Dockery et al., 1993]]; [[Pope et al., 1995]]). | ||
