The Unintended Benefits of the Conservation Reserve Program for Air Quality

GeoHealth, 2022
The link between agriculture and air pollution is well‐established, as are the benefits of the US Department of Agriculture's Conservation Reserve Program (CRP). However, little research has linked CRP to air quality directly.

Long-term air pollution exposure, genome-wide DNA methylation and lung function in the lifelines cohort study [PDF]

, 2018
BACKGROUND: Long-term air pollution exposure is negatively associated with lung function, yet the mechanisms underlying this association are not fully clear. Differential DNA methylation may explain this association. OBJECTIVES: Our main aim was to study
