New paper Harvard Chan Environmental Health. We find that wildfire changes between 1988 and 2016 were associated with particulate carbon in the western U.S.A. authors.elsevier.com/a/1Z8Ba4pTZHZr…

Our recent paper published in Nature Communications. We quantified the impacts of wildfire-related PM2.5 on 2 million hospital admissions records due to cardiorespiratory diseases in Brazil between 2008 and 2018. nature.com/articles/s4146…

Our recent paper on birth weight following pregnancy wildfire smoke exposure in Brazil. In some Brazilian regions, we estimated an increase of 18% in low birth weight when the exposure occurred in the first trimester of pregnancy. lnkd.in/eQwK3bi7

Our new study on the impact of wildfires on air pollution and health across land use categories in Brazil. Full text here: authors.elsevier.com/a/1gfVb3Ao63dSA The greatest impact occurred in soybean areas in the Amazon. Sugarcane crops were also a driver of deforestation-related wildfires.

Our recent paper on Economic and racial disparities of the weather impact on air quality in Brazil. High-income group and mostly the whites were the most exposed population group. These findings differ dramatically from most of the existing literature. rdcu.be/dae2y

Our new study on the association of high ambient temperature with hospitalizations in Brazil. Previous studies have accounted only for part of the country (<50% of the municipalities). This is the first study considering all municipalities (total of 5572) authors.elsevier.com/a/1h6kzzLNSfyWR

Our new study on the association of extreme temperatures with mortality in Brazil. The pooled national results for the whole population suggest a RR of 1.27 and 1.11 associated with circulatory mortality during cold and heat exposure, respectively. lnkd.in/dekKfiC3

Glad to share our new study! This is the first nationwide study in Brazil that estimates the relationship between SO2 and mortality. Previous Brazilian studies were conducted in specific cities and did not provide a nationwide estimate. authors.elsevier.com/a/1hq0jAOMA1SsI

Our latest research on air pollution control measures in Brazil. We found that the current control may not be as effective as anticipated in reducing air pollution. lnkd.in/dRpHMRQw

I'm excited to share two new papers on the impact of air pollution on preterm birth and low birth weight in Brazil. Our findings show a clear link between air pollution and these adverse birth outcomes. Full paper here: lnkd.in/dTypdriT lnkd.in/dtAr5mVb
