Mortality risk attributable to wildfire-related PM(2·5) pollution: a global tim...
Chen, G; Guo, Y; Yue, X; Tong, S; Gasparrini, A; Bell, ML; Armstrong, B; Schwartz, J; Jaakkola, JJK; Zanobetti, A; Lavigne, E; Nascimento Saldiva, PHBackground Many regions of the world are now facing more frequent and unprecedentedly large wildfires. However, the association between wildfire-related PM2·5 and mortality has not been well characterised. We aimed to comprehensively assess the association between short-term exposure to wildfire-related PM2·5 and mortality across various regions of the world. Methods For this time series study, data on daily co...
Predicted temperature-increase-induced global health burden and its regional va...

We determined that the amount of temperature increase for each 100 ppm increase in global CO2 concentrations is nearly constant, regardless of climate scenarios. The overall average temperature increase during 2010–2099 is largest ...
