Journal ArticleDOI
Exposure assessment for estimation of the global burden of disease attributable to outdoor air pollution.
Michael Brauer,Markus Amann,Rick Burnett,Aaron Cohen,Frank Dentener,Majid Ezzati,Sarah B. Henderson,Michal Krzyzanowski,Randall V. Martin,Randall V. Martin,Rita Van Dingenen,Aaron van Donkelaar,George D. Thurston +12 more
TL;DR: These estimates expand the evaluation of the global health burden associated with outdoor air pollution, highlighted by increased concentrations in East, South, and Southeast Asia and decreases in North America and Europe.
Journal ArticleDOI
Estimated Global Mortality Attributable to Smoke from Landscape Fires
Fay H. Johnston,Sarah B. Henderson,Yang Chen,James T. Randerson,Miriam E. Marlier,Ruth DeFries,Patrick L. Kinney,David M. J. S. Bowman,Michael Brauer +8 more
TL;DR: Fire emissions are an important contributor to global mortality and could be substantially reduced by curtailing burning of tropical rainforests, which rarely burn naturally.
Journal ArticleDOI
Application of land use regression to estimate long-term concentrations of traffic-related nitrogen oxides and fine particulate matter
TL;DR: Land use regression is a promising technique for predicting ambient air pollutant concentrations at high spatial resolution by modeling oxides of nitrogen and fine particulate matter in Vancouver, Canada, using two measures of traffic, supporting the usefulness of this approach for assessing spatial patterns of traffic-related pollution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Extreme air pollution events from bushfires and dust storms and their association with mortality in Sydney, Australia 1994-2007
TL;DR: The magnitude and temporal patterns of association with mortality were different for smoke and dust events and public health advisories during bushfire smoke pollution episodes should include advice about hot weather in addition to air pollution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Three Measures of Forest Fire Smoke Exposure and Their Associations with Respiratory and Cardiovascular Health Outcomes in a Population-Based Cohort
TL;DR: It is found that increases in TEOM-measured PM10 were associated with increased odds of respiratory physician visits and hospital admissions, but not with cardiovascular health outcomes, which suggests that exposure assessment tools that are independent of air quality monitoring may be useful with further refinement.
