Ambient Temperature and the Air Quality Health Index
Journal Title: Journal of Civil Engineering and Environmental Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
The Air Quality Health Index (AQHI) [1] was introduced in Canada to represent a summary measure of ambient air pollution and air health effects. The AQHI is primarily applied to inform the Canadian public of health risks associated with ambient air pollution. It is used as a scaled indicator of the environmental health risk.
