@geohealthjournal.bsky.socialπ«οΈπ€ India study maps black carbon exposure at 1 km resolution (2016β2021) using machine learning.
ππ‘οΈ BC exposure ranged 0.4β13.7 ΞΌg/mΒ³ and was linked to ~133 all-cause deaths/100k annually.
Gupta, Pratima et al.
@geohealthjournal.bsky.socialπ₯π«οΈ U.S. study (2019β2024) finds wildfire smoke present on 14.2% of days, raising PMβ.β by ~6.9 ΞΌg/mΒ³ on smoke days.
π«ποΈ Rural West had highest smoke PMβ.β , but metros saw more asthma ED visits due to population.
Jaffe, Daniel et al.
@geohealthjournal.bsky.socialπ𧬠Study comparing Australia vs U.S. finds Australians may receive ~24% more biologically weighted UV, but ODS-related health impacts were similar, with increased cataracts, melanoma, and keratinocyte cancer.

@geohealthjournal.bsky.socialπ«οΈποΈ Jordanβs first national multi-city time-series study links PMββ to acute mortality risk in Amman (2015β2019).
ππ‘οΈ PMββ was near/exceeded standards in Amman/Zarqa.

@geohealthjournal.bsky.socialπ‘οΈπ« Baltimore study links extreme heat to adult & pediatric asthma ED visits.
ποΈπ Fine-scale block/tract temps showed nighttime heat waves were strongly associated with exacerbations.

@geohealthjournal.bsky.socialπ°οΈπ«οΈ CMIP6 PMβ.β models offer global exposure data but include measurement error.
ππ This study compares simulations with monitors and links corrected exposures to birthweight across DHS surveys.

@geohealthjournal.bsky.socialπ‘οΈβοΈ Virginia study (2005β2020) found racial disparities in weather-related mortality.
ππ‘οΈ Black residents had higher mortality risk than white residents at both heat & cold extremes.
DeGuzman, Pamela B. et al.
@geohealthjournal.bsky.socialIn their new study, Garcia et al. find that planting and maintaining trees, particularly in hotter neighborhoods, could lower mortality and make communities more resilient to rising temperatures. π³

@geohealthjournal.bsky.socialππ« U.S. ecological study links long-term climate anomalies to increased coronary heart disease & stroke prevalence.
πβ οΈ Not causal, but these results suggest climate change may create chronic health impacts.
Yeager, Ray et al.
@geohealthjournal.bsky.socialβ½π«οΈ Study uses AMS/EPA Regulatory Model (AERMOD) to model NOβ exposure, health impacts & equity near 4 U.S. liquified natural gas export terminals.
πβ οΈ Max 1-hr NOβ reached up to 16% of EPAβs standard.
