Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia, Air Monitoring and Health Impact Baseline (AMHIB) Report : Annex A. Particulate Matter Concentrations/Baseline in Ulaanbaatar, June 2008 – May 2009
Air pollution has major health impacts on people living in Ulaanbaatar. The excessively high particulate matter concentrations, especially in the winter and in the ger areas, increase the incidence of heart and lung diseases, and lead to premature...

| description |
Air pollution has major health impacts
on people living in Ulaanbaatar. The excessively high
particulate matter concentrations, especially in the winter
and in the ger areas, increase the incidence of heart and
lung diseases, and lead to premature deaths. Improving air
quality management in Ulaanbaatar and reducing pollution
concentrations would prevent illnesses, save lives and avoid
enormous health costs. The implementation of the Air
Monitoring and Health Impact Baseline (AMHIB) study has
brought together Mongolian and international air quality
experts as well as public health experts and economists who
have taken an synergetic approach of linking public health,
air quality and economic issues. This report builds upon the
discussion paper air pollution in Ulaanbaatar: initial
assessment of current situation and effects of abatement
measures that was published in December 2009, and reflects
the final results and recommendations from the AMHIB project. |
