CBLK = black carbon, NO2 = nitrogen dioxide, PM2.5 = particulate matter of 2.5 μm or less in diameter, PM10 = particulate matter of 10 μm or less in diameter, UFP = ultra-fine particles, PMcoarse = PM2.5 - PM10, NOx = nitrogen oxides.

p-Values are for pair-wise comparisons according to the location (Hyde Park vs Oxford Street and Barceloneta vs Ronda).
