Exposure to ambient fine particulate matter (PM<sub>2.5</sub>) is a leading contributor to diseases in India. Previous studies analysing emission source attributions were restricted by coarse model resolution and limited PM<sub>2.5</sub> observations. We use a regional model informed by new observations to make the first high-resolution study of the sector-specific disease burden from ambient PM<sub>2.5</sub> exposure in India. Observed annual mean PM<sub>2.5</sub> concentrations exceed 100 μg m ...[more]
