Applications of Discrete-time Markov Chains and Poisson Processes to Air Pollution Modeling and Studies

​In this brief we consider some stochastic models that may be used to study problems related to environmental matters, in particular, air pollution.  The impact of exposure to air pollutants on people''s health is a very clear and well documented subject. Therefore, it is very important to obtain ways to predict or explain the behaviour of pollutants in general. Depending on the type of question t...
