About the Cover

Commuting accounts for one of the highest daily air pollution exposure periods for workers in the U.S. In this issue’s cover article, “A Comparison of Perceived and Measured Commuter Air Pollution Exposures,” commuters’ perceived versus actual air pollution exposures across six modes of commuting were compared. As the cover shows, there is a disconnect in terms of what is perceived versus what is measured. Active modes of commuting such as walking and bicycling have lower perceived air pollution exposures yet have higher measured exposures. On the other hand, automobile and public transportation modes have higher perceived air pollution exposures yet have lower measured exposures. The study highlights the public’s lack of understanding regarding factors that influence daily air pollution exposures during commuting.
