Rationale: Traffic-related emissions have been associated with respiratory symptoms in some studies. However, there is limited information on how traffic-related relate to lung function and airway inflammation.Objectives: To determine the differential association of exposures exhaled nitric oxide (NO) volumes children without asthma.Methods: We performed a longitudinal study 200 from ages 6 12 years whom half had physician-diagnosed asthma. Two-week NO2 48-hour average levels elemental...

Abstract Northwestern Mexico experiences large variations in water vapor on seasonal time scales association with the North American monsoon, as well during monsoon associated upper-tropospheric troughs, mesoscale convective systems, tropical easterly waves, and cyclones. Together these events provide more than half of annual rainfall to region. A sufficient density meteorological observations is required properly observe, understand, forecast important processes contributing development...

Management of transboundary aquifers is a vexing water resources challenge, especially when the are overexploited. The Hueco Bolson aquifer, which bisected by United States–Mexico border and where pumping far exceeds recharge, an apt example. We conducted binational, multisector, serious games workshop to explore collaborative solutions for extending life shared aquifer. value game was building knowledge, interest, understanding, constituency among critical stakeholders from both sides...

The North American monsoon (NAM) is a dominant feature of the climate northwest Mexico and southwest United States. annual monsoon, which usually lasts from July to September, contributes more than half yearly precipitation for much region. Thunderstorms brought on by are routinely responsible severe weather, including flooding, hail, wind, dust storms, lightning. Tropical storms hurricanes during NAM season can also wreak havoc larger scale.

Abstract Changes in land use patterns at expanding border cities along the U.S.‐Mexico transboundary area have severe impacts on runoff coefficients and flood risk management. Severe rain is most representative type of precipitation Paso del Norte (PdN) region (New Mexico Texas United States Chihuahua Mexico), characterized by high intensity, low duration, volumes falling localized, small areas. Rains generate flooding damage to urban infrastructure, putting people properties arroyos, which...
