Wildfire smoke exposure and mortality burden in the US under climate change
Descripción general
Resumen del artículo
This study projects increased wildfire smoke exposure and related mortality in the US under future climate change scenarios, especially by mid-century. Projected increases are most prominent in the Western US, with smaller changes elsewhere. Future mortality burden is also dependent on population and baseline death rate changes.
