Biofuels from biomass gasification are reviewed here, and demonstrated to be an attractive
option. Recent progress in gasification techniques and key generation pathways for biofuels …

Background: Wildfire activity is predicted to increase in many parts of the world due to
changes in temperature and precipitation patterns from global climate change. Wildfire …

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 …

Both high arterial blood pressure (BP) and elevated levels of fine particulate matter (PM2. 5)
air pollution have been associated with an increased risk for several cardiovascular (CV) …

Biomass burning (BB) including forest, bush, prescribed fires, agricultural fires, residential
wood combustion, and power generation has long been known to affect climate, air quality …

This document presents answers to 24 questions relevant to reviewing European policies on
air pollution and to addressing health aspects of these policies. The answers were …

We investigated health effects associated with fine particulate matter during a long-lived,
large wildfire complex in northern California in the summer of 2008. We estimated exposure …

In this study, various remote sensing data, modeling data and emission inventories were
integrated to analyze the tempo-spatial distribution of biomass burning in mainland …

In recent years, wildland fires have occurred more frequently and with increased intensity in
many fire-prone areas. In addition to the direct life and economic losses attributable to …

Abstract In this study, Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer active fire and land
use products were integrated to extract and classify biomass burning (BB) data for South …
