Spatial analysis of mental health and suicide clustering among older adults in North Carolina
Late-in-life suicide is a major public health issue, with adults over 65 comprising 18% of all suicide deaths. Yet, little research has identified geographic concentrations of older populations at-risk for the psychological conditions in the pathway of suicide. This research identified spatial clustering of suicide, anxiety, depression, and self-injury among older adults in North Carolina from 2009-18 and the individual and area-level factors inf…
Inequalities in Life Expectancy Across North Carolina
Health inequalities are characterized by spatial patterns of social, economic, and political factors. Life expectancy (LE) is a commonly used indicator of overall population health and health inequalities that allows for comparison across different spatial and temporal regions. The objective of this study was to examine geographic inequalities in LE across North Carolina census tracts by comparing the performance of 2 popular geospatial health in…
Analyzing the spatial determinants of local Covid-19 transmission in the United States
Understanding Key-Informant Experiences and Perceptions of the 2016 Drought and Wildfires in Western North Carolina
In 2016, an exceptional drought and subsequent wildfires devastated the southeastern United States. Western North Carolina (WNC), a socioeconomically growing region that is dependent on revenue from tourism and agriculture, was particularly impacted by the events. The Southeast is not typically considered to be water vulnerable, and few studies have explored drought and wildfire in WNC. However, the region is projected to experience elevated wate…
