This review examines physical environmental influences and their potential effect on human health. The factors discussed are noise (effect of sound), the physical effect of particulate matter (fine dust, particulate matter PM10, PM2.5, ultrafine particles UFP), various types of radiation (electromagnetic fields, radioactivity) and climate (especially heat). In order to identify hazard potentials, it is necessary to know the route of exposure and the mode of action. Environmental epidemiology studies help to illustrate the health consequences for the population. The limitations of the studies must also be considered.
