Health disparities and industrial emissions
Racialized and lower-income communities often face disproportionate health risks from air pollution. In central Texas, semiconductor fabrication plants (SFPs) are a major emissions source, but their health effects and impact on disparities remain unclear. This study examined 217 census tracts in Travis County, Texas, calculating an SFP exposure score based on facility-reported emissions, weighted by proximity. Using distance-adjusted propensity s…
Alignment of Air Pollution Exposure Inequality Metrics with Environmental Justice and Equity Goals in the United States
A growing literature within the field of air pollution exposure assessment addresses the issue of environmental justice. Leveraging the increasing availability of exposure datasets with broad spatial coverage and high spatial resolution, a number of works have assessed inequalities in exposure across racial/ethnic and other socioeconomic groupings. However, environmental justice research presents the additional need to evaluate exposure inequity-…
Association between county-level coal-fired power plant pollution and racial disparities in preterm births from 2000 to 2018
Coal has historically been a primary energy source in the United States. The byproducts of coal combustion, such as fine particulate matter (PM 2.5 ), have increasingly been associated with adverse birth outcomes. The goal of this study was to leverage the current progressive transition away from coal in the United States (U.S.) to assess whether coal PM 2.5 is associated with preterm birth rates and whether this association differs by maternal B…
Air pollution accountability of energy transitions
Recent studies have sought epidemiological evidence of the effectiveness of energy transitions. Such evidence often relies on so-called "natural experiments," wherein environmental and/or health outcomes are assessed before, during, and after the transition of interest. Often, these studies attribute air pollution exposure changes-either modeled or measured-directly to the transition. We formalize a framework for separating the fractions of a giv…

Using a Density-Variation/Compactness Measure to Evaluate Redistricting Plans for Partisan Bias and Electoral Responsiveness
The clear association between population density and partisan preference in elections suggests that redistricting plans would be better aligned with principles of partisan fairness if there were a deliberate effort to balance population density across legislative districts. To balance population density without sacrificing geometric compactness, we define a density-variation/compactness (DVC) measure that can serve as a one-number summary of a pr…
