While significant progress has been witnessed in air quality management, there are concerns that remain to be addressed in some key areas. This book is a collection of selected contribu‐ tions in key fields of air quality. Each contribution comes as a distinct chapter complete in itself but directly related to the book's themes and purposes describing air pollution case studies. The book contains findings of air pollution scientists from around the globe on five areas of interest in the field: Air Pollution Modeling, Air Quality and Health, Air Pollution Risk Assessment, Air Pollution Monitoring, and Indoor Air Pollution. The book is recom‐ mended to professionals who wish to exercise applications of the concepts in air pollution discussed in the book.
