Assessing Unequal Airborne Exposure to Lead Associated With Race in the USA. Geohealth. 2023;7(7):e2023GH000829. Published 2023 Jul 24. doi:10.1029/2023GH000829https://hdl.handle.net/1805/38351Recent research applied the United States Environmental Protection Agency's Chemical Speciation Network and Interagency Monitoring of Protected Visual Environments monitoring stations and observed that mean concentrations of atmospheric lead (Pb) in highly segregated counties are a factor of 5 higher than in well‐integrated counties and argument is made that regulation of existing airborne Pb emissions will reduce children's Pb exposure. We argue that one of the main sources of children's current Pb exposure is from resuspension of legacy Pb in soil dust and that the racial disparity of Pb exposure is associated with Pb‐contaminated community soils.en-USAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 InternationalSoilLeadBloodResuspensionRaceBlackArticle
