Air quality resolution for health impact assessment: influence of regional characteristics
Thompson, T. M.; Saari, Rebecca Kaarina; Selin, Noelle Eckley (Copernicus GmbH, 2014-01)We evaluate how regional characteristics of population and background pollution might impact the selection of optimal air quality model resolution when calculating the human health impacts of changes to air quality. Using ... -
A self-consistent method to assess air quality co-benefits from U.S. climate policies
Saari, Rebecca Kaarina; Selin, Noelle E.; Rausch, Sebastian; Thompson, Tammy M. (Taylor & Francis, 2014-10)Air quality co-benefits can potentially reduce the costs of greenhouse gas mitigation. However, whereas many studies of the cost of greenhouse gas mitigation model the macroeconomic welfare impacts of mitigation, most ... -
U.S. Air Quality and Health Benefits from Avoided Climate Change under Greenhouse Gas Mitigation
Garcia Menendez, Fernando; Saari, Rebecca Kaarina; Monier, Erwan; Selin, Noelle E (Springer-Verlag, 2015-06)We evaluate the impact of climate change on U.S. air quality and health in 2050 and 2100 using a global modeling framework and integrated economic, climate, and air pollution projections. Three internally consistent ...
