  • Biomass burning emission estimation in the Modis era

    Open AccessMark Parrington, Cynthia H Whaley et al.ARTICLEElementa Science of the…2025

    Accurate estimates of biomass burning (BB) emissions are of great importance worldwide due to the impacts of these emissions on human health, ecosystems, air quality, and climate. Atmospheric modeling efforts to represent these impacts require BB emissions as a key input. This paper is presented by the Biomass Burning Uncertainty: Reactions, Emissions and Dynamics (BBURNED) activity of the International Global Atmospheric Chemistry project and la…

  • Wildfire burn severity and emissions inventory

    Open AccessQingqing Xu, A L Westerling et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2022

    Wildfire severity is a key indicator of both direct ecosystem impacts and indirect emissions impacts that affect air quality, climate, and public health far beyond the spatial footprint of the flames. Comprehensive, accurate inventories of severity and emissions are essential for assessing these impacts and setting appropriate fire management and health care preparedness strategies, as is the ability to project emissions for future wildfires. The…

  • Fires that matter

    Open AccessVirginia Iglesias, E Natasha Stavros et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2022

    Increasing fire impacts across North America are associated with climate and vegetation change, greater exposure through development expansion, and less-well studied but salient social vulnerabilities. We are at a critical moment in the contemporary human-fire relationship, with an urgent need to transition from emergency response to proactive measures that build sustainable communities, protect human health, and restore the use of fire necessary…

  • A fuel-based method for updating mobile source emissions during the Covid-19 pandemic

    Open AccessColin Harkins, Brian McDonald et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2021

    The COVID-19 pandemic and ensuing lockdown of many US States resulted in rapid changes to motor vehicle traffic and their associated emissions. This presents a challenge for air quality modelling and forecasting during this period, in that transportation emission inventories need to be updated in near real-time. Here, we update the previously developed fuel-based inventory of vehicle emissions (FIVE) to account for changes due to COVID-19 lockdow…

  • Health impacts of a randomized biomass cookstove intervention in northern Ghana

    Open AccessMona Abdo, Ernest Kanyomse et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2021

    ClinicalTrials.gov (National Institutes of Health); Trial Registration Number: NCT04633135 ; Date of Registration: 11 November 2020 - Retrospectively registered. URL: https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT04633135?term=NCT04633135&draw=2&rank=1

  • Air quality and health impacts of vegetation and peat fires in Equatorial Asia during 2004–2015

    Open AccessLaura Kiely, Dominick V Spracklen et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2020

    Particulate matter (PM) emissions from vegetation and peat fires in Equatorial Asia cause poor regional air quality. Burning is greatest during drought years, resulting in strong inter-annual variability in emissions. We make the first consistent estimate of the emissions, air quality and public health impacts of Equatorial Asian fires during 2004–2015. The largest dry season (August—October) emissions occurred in 2015, with PM emissions estimate…

  • Liquified Petroleum Gas (LPG) Supply and Demand for Cooking in Northern Ghana

    Open AccessMaxwell Ayindenaba Dalaba, Maxwell Dalaba et al.ARTICLEEcoHealth2018

    Like many other countries, Ghana relies on biomass (mainly wood and charcoal) for most of its cooking needs. A national action plan aims to expand liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) access to 50% of the country's population by 2020. While the country's southern urban areas have made progress toward this goal, LPG use for cooking remains low in the north. The aim of this cross-sectional study was to characterize the current state of the LPG market in t…

  • Rural–urban differences in cooking practices and exposures in Northern Ghana

    Open AccessChristine Wiedinmyer, Katherine L Dickinson et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2017

    Key differences between urban and rural populations can influence the adoption and impacts of new cooking technologies and fuels. We examine these differences among urban and rural households that are part of the REACCTING study in Northern Ghana. While urban and rural populations in the study area all use multiple stoves, the types of stoves and fuels differ, with urban participants more likely to use charcoal and LPG while rural households rely…

  • Adoption and use of a semi-gasifier cooking and water heating stove and fuel intervention in the Tibetan Plateau, China

  • Global burden of mortalities due to chronic exposure to ambient PM 2.5 from open combustion of domestic waste

    Open AccessJohn K Kodros, Christine Wiedinmyer et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2016

    Uncontrolled combustion of domestic waste has been observed in many countries, creating concerns for air quality; however, the health implications have not yet been quantified. We incorporate the Wiedinmyer et al (2014 Environ. Sci. Technol. https://doi.org/10.1021/es502250z 48 https://doi.org/10.1021/es502250z ) emissions inventory into the global chemical-transport model, GEOS-Chem, and provide a first estimate of premature adult mortalities fr…

  • Research on Emissions, Air quality, Climate, and Cooking Technologies in Northern Ghana (REACCTING)

    Open AccessKatherine L Dickinson, Ernest Kanyomse et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2015

    REACCTING is well-poised to generate useful data on the impact of a cookstove intervention on a wide range of outcomes. By comparing different technologies side by side and employing an interdisciplinary approach to study this issue from multiple perspectives, this study may help to inform future efforts to improve health and quality of life for populations currently relying on open fires for their cooking needs

  • Sensitivity of mesoscale modeling of smoke direct radiative effect to the emission inventory

    Open AccessFeng Zhang, Jun Wang et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2014

    An ensemble approach is used to examine the sensitivity of smoke loading and smoke direct radiative effect in the atmosphere to uncertainties in smoke emission estimates. Seven different fire emission inventories are applied independently to WRF-Chem model (v3.5) with the same model configuration (excluding dust and other emission sources) over the northern sub-Saharan African (NSSA) biomass-burning region. Results for November and February 2010 …
