Bloustein and SEBS Researchers: Effect of heatwaves on PM2.5 levels in apartments of low-income elderly population.
To study the effect of high outdoor temperatures on indoor air quality, the researchers recruited 24 seniors from 3 low-income housing sites in Elizabeth, NJ, to participate in a study that used consumer-grade sensors in their apartments to monitor airborne particulate matter (PM2.5) and air temperature.
Research by Kumar, Andrews et al. – Saving from home! How income, efficiency, and curtailment behaviors shape energy
The authors explored the role of annual household income on efficiency and curtailment behaviors while controlling for the physical and demographic variables using structural equation modeling (SEM). Next, they tested the extent and direction of self-reported energy efficiency and curtailment behaviors.
