Landscape fire, smoke, and health : linking biomass burning emissions to human well-being / editors Tatiana V. Loboda, Nancy H.F. French, Robin C. Puett.
"There is an immense lack of general understanding of the scope and advantages offered across various components of the modeling chain, starting with fire detection through emissions modeling, atmospheric transport, and constructing epidemiological models. The great proliferation of methods for each of the components is creating a wild west environment where it becomes increasingly challenging to evaluate the validity of reported results and thus leading to opaque science. Thus, this volume provides a synthesis effort distributed across all components of the modeling chain, which is necessary to build a community with a common understanding of the modeling potential and to promoting further scientific inquiry. Wildland Fire, Smoke, and Health focuses on a synthesis of activities across several disparate disciplines aimed at understanding health outcomes of wildland fire emissions (smoke)"-- Provided by publisher.
