Review of the Health Effects of Wildland Fire Smoke on Wildland Firefighters and the Public

Inhalation Toxicology, 2016
Each year, the general public and wildland firefighters in the US are exposed to smoke from wildland fires. As part of an effort to characterize health risks of breathing this smoke, a review of the literature was conducted using five major databases, including PubMed and MEDLINE Web of Knowledge, to identify smoke components that present the highest ...

Modelling smoke transport from wildland fires: a review

International Journal of Wildland Fire, 2012
Among the key issues in smoke management is predicting the magnitude and location of smoke effects. These vary in severity from hazardous (acute health conditions and drastic visibility impairment to transportation) to nuisance (regional haze), and occur across a range of scales (local to continental).
