I'm not sure if it is usual in this field of research, but it seems strange to me to account 'Resuspension' for as emission. And as you say, this single contribution heavily distorts the picture.

It seems sensible if you're wanting to account for air quality on or near roads, which is the primary concern w.r.t. human health and socioeconomic impact.

The top comment in the thread was about Teslas improving human/lung health through air quality in cities which is heavily affecting by the resuspension affect.
