Correlation of BC and NO2 levels within Allegheny County census tracts. Exposure estimates for each pollutant were obtained for each census tract as described from the LUR models (Fig. 1). Each point represents a single tract plotted in terms of its modeled BC (μg/m3) and NO2 (ppb) value. Linear regression of the entire dataset indicates a significant positive correlation between each pollutant; however, considerable variability exists around the linear relationship (r2 = 0.3178)
