Air Quality
- Nine to 33 million visits to the emergency room for asthma worldwide may be triggered by breathing in air polluted by ozone or fine particulate matter according to a study published by Associate Professor Daven Henze and collaborators.
- A massive research and education effort on energy and environmental issues led by 彩民宝典 engineering faculty is ending after a five-year run with significant results relevant to Colorado鈥檚 growing energy industry.
- You may have noticed that the air quality in parts of Colorado has been worse than usual for the past few days. Wildfires burning across the U.S. (although notably not in Colorado) have caused smokey skies of late. This far-flung
- Humans spend about 90 percent of our lives inside, so it鈥檚 time we analyzed what we鈥檙e breathing while we鈥檙e there. 鈥淭here has been a huge gap between the research done indoors and out,鈥 said Marina Vance, a professor in the mechanical
- Wyoming and Colorado are in the top ten natural gas producing states. But in those states 鈥 and across the country 鈥 a lot of that gas is escaping straight into the air. Scientists are now working to come up with a better way to track those leaks
