The changing risk and burden of wildfire in the United States

Marshall Burke et al.

Summary: Recent research examines the changing risk and societal burden of wildfires in the United States. A statistical model is developed to analyze the impact of wildfire activity on air pollution and health outcomes. The study highlights the potential health benefits of fuel management interventions and the uncertain future health impacts from climate-change-induced wildfire smoke.

Ambient PM2.5 exposure and rapid spread of COVID-19 in the United States

Rajan K. Chakrabarty et al.

Summary: It has been suggested that long-term exposure to air pollution, particularly PM2.5, can increase susceptibility to COVID-19. Studies have shown that higher levels of PM2.5 and secondary inorganic composition are associated with increased COVID-19 transmission rates, highlighting the importance of regulating pollution levels to control the spread of the disease.

Lu Dong et al.

Summary: The study investigates 1,535 California wildfires from 1984 to 2017, classifying them into four groups based on temperature and moisture anomalies. Most wildfires occurred on hot-dry days, with the meteorological anomalies influencing wildfire size as well.Overall, the total burned area by wildfires in California has significantly increased by 3.6% per year, mainly dominated by hot-dry wildfires in summer.

Differential Cardiopulmonary Health Impacts of Local and Long-Range Transport of Wildfire Smoke

Sheryl Magzamen et al.

Summary: This study estimated cardiopulmonary morbidity and mortality associated with wildfire smoke in the Front Range of Colorado from 2010 to 2015. Results showed that an increase in WFS PM2.5 was associated with hospitalizations and deaths for respiratory, asthma, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, as well as cardiac arrest and cardiovascular mortality. Different years and sources of smoke had varying impacts on health outcomes.

Excess of COVID-19 cases and deaths due to fine particulate matter exposure during the 2020 wildfires in the United States

Xiaodan Zhou et al.

Summary: In 2020, wildfires and the COVID-19 pandemic occurred simultaneously in the western United States. Studies have shown that wildfires exacerbated the impact of PM2.5 on COVID-19 cases and deaths, but with significant heterogeneity across counties.
