Sentinel-2 Satellite and Hysplit Model Show that Local Cereal Harvesting Substantially Contributes to Peak Alternaria Spore Concentrations
Alternaria is a human/animal allergen and plant/animal pathogen. Cereal harvesting emits a large amount of Alternaria spores into the atmosphere. However, estimating the peak spore periods and source areas ...
Variability in the association between long-term exposure to ambient air pollution and mortality by exposure assessment method and covariate adjustment: A census-based country-wide cohort study
with age as the underlying time scale and adjusted for various individual and area-level covariates. We further adjusted main models for two different area-levels following the European Nomenclature of ...
Association between temperature and natural mortality in Belgium: Effect modification by individual characteristics and residential environment

Higher buccal mtDNA content is associated with residential surrounding green in a panel study of primary school children
was associated with a respectively 15.2% (95% CI: 7.2%–23.7%), 10.8% (95% CI: 4.5%–17.5%), and 13.4% (95% CI: 7.4%–19.7%) higher mtDNAc. Conversely, an IQR increment (11.6%) in agricultural area in the ...
Residential Exposure to Urban Trees and Medication Sales for Mood Disorders and Cardiovascular Disease in Brussels, Belgium: An Ecological Study
because the assessment of exposure to trees is often imprecise because of, for instance, exclusion of trees in private areas and the lack of three-dimensional (3D) exposure indicators (e.g., crown volume). ...
What triggers selective daily mobility among older adults? A study comparing trip and environmental characteristics between observed path and shortest path.
older adults (aged 67-94) living in urban and suburban areas of Luxembourg, was measured through detour percentage between their observed GPS-based paths and their shortest paths. Multilevel negative ...

Exposure to green spaces may strengthen resilience and support mental health in the face of the covid-19 pandemic
more often used to complement mental health management in primary care, now and post-covid-19. In highly urbanised and densely populated regions, however, natural areas are usually too small to ...
4DEMON: Integrating 40 Years of Data on PCB and Metal Contamination in Marine Sediments of the Belgian Part of the North Sea
