    • Atmospheric aerosol studies in Kenya 

      Gatari, Michael J (2006)
      There have been very few studies in Kenya on aerosols despite the global demand on aerosol ground studies in the perspective of climate and the human well being. Therefore, atmospheric aerosol studies became the basis of ...

    • Elemental analysis of size-fractionated particulate matter sampled in Göteborg, Sweden 

      Wagner, Annemarie; Boman, Johan; Gatari, Michael J (Department of Chemistry, Atmospheric Science, Göteborg UniversityInstitute of Nuclear Science & Technology, University of Nairobi, 2008)
      The aim of the study was to investigate the mass distribution of trace elements in aerosol samples collected in the urban area of Göteborg, Sweden, with special focus on the impact of different air masses and anthropogenic ...

    • Impact of Road Transport on Air Quality in Kenya: Roadside Survey in the Cities of Mombasa and Nairobi 

      Maina, David M; Gatari, Michael J; Bundi, Peter; Muturi, Harun (Institute of Nuclear Science & Technology, University of Nairobi, 2006)
      Vehicle emissions have profound implications in human health and welfare, ecosystems and on climate (Finlayson-Pitts and Pitts Jnr., 12000; IPCC, 2001; Cacciola et aI., 2002). These emissions include particulate matter ...

    • Trace elements in PM2.5 in Gothenburg, Sweden 

      Boman, Johan; Wagner, Annemarie; Gatari, Michael J (Institute of Nuclear Science and Technology, University of NairobiDepartment of Chemistry, University of Gothenburg, SwedenDepartment of Applied Physics, Chalmers University of Technology, Göteborg, Sweden, 2010)
      Ambient aerosol particles smaller than 2.5 µm (PM2.5) are getting more and more attention worldwide. While legal focus is mainly on sample mass, the composition of the particles is an important research field gaining ...
