英文摘要 | Rapid urbanization of Brazil has resulted in environmental degradation with poor air quality and urban heat island effects. Climate change is anticipated to further increase overall temperatures with heat waves that occur more often, burn hotter, and last longer. We propose to estimate air pollution (fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and ozone), heat waves, and days of high or low temperatures under present-day conditions and in the future under climate change for two major Brazilian cities. We also will develop estimates of how weather and air pollution impact mortality in Brazil. Combining these works, we will calculate the health impacts of climate change for air pollution and weather, considering sensitive subpopulations. Further, we will consider sector analysis and impacts in the future to analyze “co-benefits” of short-term improvements in air quality under climate change policies. Our interdisciplinary team includes expertise in epidemiology, environmental engineering, biostatistics, exposure assessment, and atmospheric science. Our work addresses the three focus areas of the call for proposals to : 1) develop tools, data sources and other resources to support climate change and health research; 2) assess health co-benefits of actions to mitigate climate change, and 3) assess health impacts of actions to adapt to climate change. |
