A semi-parametric approach to estimate risk functions associated with multi-dimensional exposure profiles: application to smoking and lung cancer [PDF]

, 2013
A common characteristic of environmental epidemiology is the multi-dimensional aspect of exposure patterns, frequently reduced to a cumulative exposure for simplicity of analysis.

Long-term trends in the ambient PM_2.5- and O₃-related mortality burdens in the United States under emission reductions from 1990 to 2010 [PDF]

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2018
Concentrations of both fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and ozone (O3) in the United States (US) have decreased significantly since 1990, mainly because of air quality regulations.

Measuring Environmental Exposure to Enteric Pathogens in Low-Income Settings: Review and Recommendations of an Interdisciplinary Working Group

Environmental Science and Technology, 2020
Infections with enteric pathogens impose a heavy disease burden, especially among young children in low-income countries. Recent findings from randomized controlled trials of water, sanitation, and hygiene interventions have raised questions about ...

A simple lightning assimilation technique for improving retrospective WRF simulations

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2016
Convective rainfall is often a large source of error in retrospective modeling applications. In particular, positive rainfall biases commonly exist during summer months due to overactive convective parameterizations. In this study, lightning assimilation

Distribution and Causes of Global Forest Fragmentation

Ecology and Society, 2003
Because human land uses tend to expand over time, forests that share a high proportion of their borders with anthropogenic uses are at higher risk of further degradation than forests that share a high proportion of their borders with non-forest, natural ...
