Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Internal medicine
  • Carbon dioxide

His primary scientific interests are in Environmental chemistry, Aerosol, Air pollution, Total organic carbon and Seasonality. His Environmental chemistry study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Chemical composition, Particulates, Mineralogy, Carbon and Sulfate. Aerosol is the subject of his research, which falls under Meteorology.

Kin Fai Ho combines subjects such as Volatile organic compound, Environmental engineering, Benzene and Air quality index with his study of Air pollution. His Total organic carbon research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Combustion and Sea salt. His study looks at the intersection of Seasonality and topics like Scavenging with Enrichment factor.

His most cited work include:

  • High secondary aerosol contribution to particulate pollution during haze events in China (2110 citations)
  • Spatial and seasonal distributions of carbonaceous aerosols over China (837 citations)
  • Aerodynamic analysis of SARS-CoV-2 in two Wuhan hospitals. (664 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Kin Fai Ho mainly investigates Environmental chemistry, Particulates, Aerosol, Air pollution and Environmental engineering. His Environmental chemistry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Carbon, Sulfate and Ozone. His research investigates the connection between Sulfate and topics such as Mineralogy that intersect with problems in Chemical composition.

His research on Aerosol concerns the broader Meteorology. His Air pollution study incorporates themes from Seasonality, Air quality index and Environmental health. His Environmental engineering research incorporates elements of Coal combustion products, Formaldehyde and Diesel fuel.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Environmental chemistry (63.79%)
  • Particulates (28.45%)
  • Aerosol (27.30%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • Environmental chemistry (63.79%)
  • Particulates (28.45%)
  • Environmental health (8.91%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Kin Fai Ho mainly focuses on Environmental chemistry, Particulates, Environmental health, Air pollution and Ozone. His studies in Environmental chemistry integrate themes in fields like Oxidative stress, Sulfate, Cardiopulmonary disease and Aerosol. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Virus, Outbreak, Isolation and Chloride.

His research in Particulates intersects with topics in Coal combustion products, Tobacco smoke, Indoor air quality and Transmission. His Air pollution research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Air quality index, Machine learning, Pollutant and Solid fuel. Land use regression is closely connected to Environmental engineering in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Pollutant.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Aerodynamic analysis of SARS-CoV-2 in two Wuhan hospitals. (664 citations)
  • Aerodynamic Characteristics and RNA Concentration of SARS-CoV-2 Aerosol in Wuhan Hospitals during COVID-19 Outbreak (112 citations)
  • Intention of nurses to accept coronavirus disease 2019 vaccination and change of intention to accept seasonal influenza vaccination during the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic: A cross-sectional survey. (47 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Internal medicine
  • Carbon dioxide

Kin Fai Ho spends much of his time researching Environmental chemistry, Particulates, Air pollution, NOx and Outbreak. His Environmental chemistry study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Biomass burning, Levoglucosan and Human lung. His Particulates research integrates issues from Cardiopulmonary disease, Indoor air quality and Cytotoxicity.

His work deals with themes such as Random forest and Public transport, which intersect with Air pollution. His Outbreak research includes themes of Aerosol deposition, Aerosol and Deposition. As a member of one scientific family, he mostly works in the field of Aerosol, focusing on Isolation and, on occasion, Virology.
