Description
Highlights: • We developed exposure models to predict PM2.5 levels in Texas using the 1-km AOD. • Mixed-effects models showed great prediction performance (CV R2: 0.63–0.69). • Better model performance occurred in Eastern Texas with more urban areas. The regulatory monitoring data of particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter < 2.5 μm (PM2.5) in Texas have limited spatial and temporal coverage. The purpose of this study is to estimate the ground-level PM2.5 concentrations on a daily basis using satellite-retrieved Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD) in the state of Texas.
