Data for: Spatial decomposition analysis of NO2 and PM2.5 air pollution in the United States
Description
This dataset includes the yearly decomposed concentrations of four spatial components ("long-range", "mid-range", "neighborhood", "near-source") for PM2.5 and NO2 for the contiguous United States, from year-2000 to year-2015. Each file contains one pollutant and one year (indicated by the last two digits of the year). The concentrations are at the census block level. The unit of concentrations is ug/m3 for both pollutants. Variable names: "block_fip" identifies the block; "longitude" and "latitude" indicate the longitude and latitude of block centroid; "COMPONENT_YEAR" indicate the component and year.
