The Effects of Short-Term Exposure to Air Pollution on Mortality: The Case of Six Metropolitan Areas in Iran
Abstract
This paper studies the short term impact of pollutions on various causes of mortality in six metropolitan areas of Tehran, Ahvaz, Mashhad, Tabrix, Shiraz, and Esfahan. It uses daily data of PRM2.5, PRM10, CO, NOx, and O3 in these cities during 2011 throught 2015. In this exercise, the impact of both daily pollutions and its past two week averages on mortality is examined. In estimation we control for time and city fixed effects as well as dailty weather conditions. We find no assicoation between daily pollution and mortality. However, the results show that increasing CO in the past two weeks causes a significant increase in mortality.
