Abstract
Respiratory disease poses a significant threat to the health and athletic performance of both horses and riders, necessitating the reduction of potential pollutants within equine environments (Deaton and Marlin, 2004). Enhanced management protocols for minimising respiratory irritants within equine housing have been developed, however knowledge of such pollutants in exercise areas remains ambiguous. The aim of this project was to investigate total dust levels and airborne surface dust dynamics during riding sessions on two different widely used arena surfaces.
