where,
• subscripts i represent the location of study, j is the
respective vehicle category, and k is the respective
emitted compound
• Ei = daily emission in location i (g or mg).
• Nij = number of registered vehicle category j in location i.
• dj = distance traveled by respective vehicle category j
daily (km).
• fjk = emission factor of compound k for vehicle category j
(g/km or mg/km).
