Abstract:
Lung Deposited Surface Area (LDSA) has been identi?ed as a potential metric for the correlation of a
physical aerosol particle properties with health outcomes. Currently, there is little urban LDSA data. As a
case study, we investigated measurements of LDSA (alveolar) concentrations in a mid-size European city.
LDSA and associated measurements were carried out over 1.5 years at an urban background site in
Leicester, UK.
