About the Book: Basic Mathematics for Students of Air Pollutants
Air pollution is recognised as a major threat to global public health. The study
of air pollution requires an understanding of various mathematical concepts that
some students may not have encountered. For students struggling with the
necessary maths this book provides a brilliant basic resource to get them up to
speed.
The two authors use their long experience in the air pollution field to provide
a selection of the basic mathematical techniques required for the study of air
pollution. These include introductions to statistical distributions, regression
analysis, the elementary physics of airborne particles and gases and
epidemiological techniques.
