Fig. 5: Contribution of age structure change to deaths attributable to PM2.5 air pollution in four scenarios: SSP1-2.6, SSP2-4.5, SSP3-7.0 and SSP5-8.5.
From: The challenge of population aging for mitigating deaths from PM2.5 air pollution in China

a–d depict the paths leading to increase in the deaths; e is the path resulting in decrease in the deaths; and f represents the net changes in the deaths.
