Measuring long-term exposure to wildfire PM2.5 in California: Time-varying inequities in environmental burden

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America
Significance Fine particulate matter (PM2.5), which disproportionately affects disadvantaged US communities, varies relatively smoothly over time. In contrast, wildfire PM2.5 demontrates short-term extreme concentrations.

Global Nitrogen Deposition Promotes Carbon Sink Formation in Terrestrial Ecosystems

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Nitrogen deposition alleviates ecosystem N limitation and enhances carbon sinks. Using 829 observations, we show 36% of deposited N is retained globally (39.15 Tg N yr−1), with distinct NHx and NOy contributions. This retention drives a terrestrial C sink of 0.88 Pg C yr−1 (25.48%), highlighting the importance of pool‐specific C:N stoichiometry ...

Investigating the relationship between stakeholder opinion about wildfire management and landscape context using GIS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Colorado residents living in the wildland urban interface (WUI) were asked about their perception of wildfire risk and their willingness-to-pay (WTP) for three fire management procedures: fuel reduction by thinning, fire suppression and prescribed fires.
