Prior studies reported excess rates (ERs) of cardiorespiratory events associated with short-term increases in PM2.5 concentrations, despite implementation pollution-control policies. In 2017, Federal Tier 3 light-duty vehicle regulations began, and to-date there have been no assessments population health effects the policy. Using NYS Statewide Planning Research Cooperative System (SPARCS) database, we obtained hospitalizations ED visits a principal diagnosis asthma or chronic obstructive...
While limited studies have evaluated the health impacts of thunderstorms and power outages (POs) separately, few assessed their joint effects. We aimed to investigate individual effects both POs on respiratory diseases, identify disparities by demographics, examine modifications mediations meteorological factors air pollution. Distributed lag nonlinear models were used exposures during three periods (i.e., days with POs, only, only) in relation emergency department visits for diseases...
The spatiotemporal and demographic disparities in exposure to ultrafine particles (UFP; number concentrations of particulate matter (PM) with diameter ≤0.1 μm), a key subcomponent fine aerosols (PM2.5; mass PM ≤ 2.5 have not been well studied. To quantify compare the aerosol pollutant for UFP PM2.5 by socio-demographic factors New York State (NYS). Ambient atmospheric were quantified using global three-dimensional model chemical transport state-of-the-science microphysical processes...
