= difference in number of years lived from ages 25–85 between 2000–2005 and 2010–2015;
= difference in life-years lost between 2000–2005 and 2010–2015;
= difference in life-years lost due to air pollution (PM2.5) between 2000–2005 and 2010–2015; and
= difference in level of average PM2.5 between 2000–2005 and 2010–2015. Positive numbers in the table represent an increase in life expectancy, LYL and PM2.5, while negative numbers represent a decline in these measures.PM2.5, particulate matter with a diameter of 2.5 µg/m3.
