However, the worldwide distribution of NO<sub>2<\/sub> exposure and associated impacts on health is still largely uncertain. To advance global exposure estimates we created a global nitrogen dioxide (NO<sub>2<\/sub>) land use regression model for 2011 using annual measurements from 5,220 air monitors in 58 countries. The model captured 54% of global NO<sub>2<\/sub> variation, with a mean absolute error of 3.7 ppb. Regional performance varied from R<sup>2<\/sup> = 0.42 (Africa) to 0.67 (South America). Repeated 10% cross-validation using bootstrap sampling (n = 10,000) demonstrated a robust performance with respect to air monitor sampling in North America, Europe, and Asia (adjusted R<sup>2<\/sup> within 2%) but not for Africa and Oceania (adjusted R<sup>2<\/sup> within 11%) where NO<sub>2<\/sub> monitoring data are sparse. The final model included 10 variables that captured both between and within-city spatial gradients in NO<sub>2<\/sub> concentrations. Variable contributions differed between continental regions, but major roads within 100 m and satellite-derived NO<sub>2<\/sub> were consistently the strongest predictors. The resulting model can be used for global risk assessments and health studies, particularly in countries without existing NO<sub>2<\/sub> monitoring data or models.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Global Land Use Regression Model for Nitrogen Dioxide Air Pollution.<\/p>\n<p>Andrew Larkin, Jeffrey A.
