A comprehensive analysis of the global health impacts of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in ambient air is presented in this thesis, using a high-resolution emission inventory, global chemical transport modeling, and probabilistic risk assessment. One of the strengths of this thesis is the concentration downscaling process which provides a linkage between emissions and exposure concentrations on a relatively high resolution. Moreover, emphasizing on individual susceptibility, this thesis proposes an instrumental revision of current risk assessment methodology. The author declaims that if the individual susceptibility was not taken into consideration, the overall risk would be underestimated by 55% and the proportion of highly vulnerable population would be underestimated by more than 90%. In general, the study evaluates the entire cycle of PAHs from their emissions from human activities to exposure to and health impacts on human bodies.
