  • Title: Atmospheric particulate matter and ozone under heat-wave conditions: do they cause an increase of mortality in Croatia?
    Author: Alebić-Juretić A, Cvitas T, Kezele N, Klasinc L, Pehnec G, Sorgo G.
    Journal: Bull Environ Contam Toxicol; 2007 Oct; 79(4):468-71. PubMed ID: 17653503.
    Abstract:
    In August 2003 Croatia experienced a heat-wave period during which elevated concentrations of particulate matter (PM10) and ozone in ambient air were measured. By applying the model of Stedman and Rooney et al., it was shown that a significant part of excess mortality during this period can be attributed to PM10 and ozone in ambient air.
