Particulate matter, air quality and climate: lessons learned and future needs
The literature on atmospheric particulate matter (PM), or atmospheric aerosol, has increased
enormously over the last 2 decades and amounts now to some 1500–2000 papers per year …

US particulate matter air quality improves except in wildfire-prone areas
Using data from rural monitoring sites across the contiguous United States, we evaluated
fine particulate matter (PM2. 5) trends for 1988–2016. We calculate trends in the policy …

Hazardous air pollutants in fresh and aged western US wildfire smoke and implications for long-term exposure
Wildfires have a significant adverse impact on air quality in the United States (US). To
understand the potential health impacts of wildfire smoke, many epidemiology studies rely …
