Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Around 20% of the population attends five hours or more of school or pre-school every day. Ensuring the optimum quality of the indoor environment can be considered the primary factor affecting the health of this population. However, this cannot be achieved without appropriately focused studies, whether international (e.g., Sinphonie) or national, or research studies and their outcomes.
In recognition of this emphasis shift, the open access journal Atmosphere is hosting a Special Issue to showcase the most recent findings related to air quality, indoor environment, and health risks in school buildings, including management strategies, exposure representative sampling, indoor environment measurement, the selection of relevant health indicators, and a host of other factors, which will certainly be significant contributions.
Original results from field and controlled investigations, subjective surveys, models, and review papers related to this topic are all welcome contributions. Authors are encouraged to include a section touching on future issues, opportunities, and/or concerns related to their topics, on the 5-, 10-, and 20-year horizons.
