The emission rates of air pollutants associated with automobiles, buses, and urban rail mass transit systems were determined in units of grams per passenger mile of travel for the four major urban areas in Florida: Jacksonville, Miami, Tampa, and Orlando. The five criteria pollutants evaluated are: volatile organic compounds (VOCs), particulate matter (PM), carbon monoxide (CO), sulphur oxides (SO2), and nitrogen oxides (NOx).
