A new method for tracking climate change and air pollution
Source ↗ 👁 0 💬 0
Two papers by Prof. Thomas A. Weber develop a rank-based method to track environmental change. They apply the idea to follow Geneva's warming climate, and generalize the approach to quantify shifts in spatial air-pollution exposure across Switzerland. The method compares observations with a historical baseline and shows how accounting for where people live changes the assessment of air-quality improvements.
