Abstract:This study quantified intra-urban variability by predicting intake fraction (iF) for 3066 emission sources in Warsaw, Poland. Intake fraction describes the fraction of the pollutant that is inhaled by the people in the study area. The following seven pollutants were considered: particulate matter (PM), nitrogen oxides (NOx), sulfur dioxide (SO2), benzo [a] pyrene (BaP), nickel (Ni), cadmium (Cd), and lead (Pb). Emissions for these pollutants were grouped to four emission source categories (Mobile, Area, High Point and Other Point sources). The dispersion of the pollutants was predicted with the CALPUFF dispersion model by using the year 2005 emission rate data and meteorology. The resulting annual concentrations were combined with the population data to predict the contribution of each individual source to population exposure.
