Abstract

We develop a statistical model for the bias resulting from designing an air quality monitoring network with the aim of finding large values, and then using the data obtained in studies of health effects of air quality. Appropriate conditional distributions are shown to be well‐known generalizations of the normal one. Theoretical results are applied to an ozone monitoring network in the state of Washington, USA.

A new method is presented to determine the optimum number and location of monitoring stations in an air pollution network. The selection of the monitoring stations is based on the spatial representativity of the sites. In particular, the spatial coecient of the correlation between the pollutant conc

This paper presents a new approach-grey compromise programing-for siting new air quality monitoring stations in a metropolitan region. In particular, cost, effectiveness and efficiency characteristics for expanding the existing air quality monitoring network are postulated in the multi-criteria deci
