缅北强奸

More than 130 forest fires were burning in northwestern Ontario on Sunday, July 25, with Environment Canada issuing air quality statements for much of the region due to smoke. ()

Here are some experts from 缅北强奸 that can provide comment on this issue:

, PhD candidate, Department of Bioresource Engineering

鈥淐limate change is pushing fire behavior to levels that were hard to imagine they would reach and quickly. Climate warming is enabling normally wet forests to burn, and as wildfires move to higher ground, more forest area is now at risk.鈥�

Mohammad Reza Alizadeh is a PhD candidate in the Department of Bioresource Engineering working under the supervision of Professor Jan Adamowski. His principal research objective is to bridge the gap between hydrology, climatology, remote sensing, and machine learning, towards addressing critical global water and environmental resource issues. His research interests extend to compound climate extremes and natural hazards, drought and flood analysis, human-climate interactions, and hydrological forecasting.

鈥淐limate change affects air quality and at the same time air pollutants,聽such as some greenhouse gases, are the main drivers of climate change.聽Summer smog in cities is formed predominantly via photochemical processes involving gases and particles. However, processes such as forest fire,聽medium- and long-term聽transport of particles such as dust聽and聽other local anthropogenic sources, can further alter the intensity and duration of smog.聽Poor air quality is known to have adverse impacts in several areas such as human health, ecosystem processes,聽and the reduction of visibility in the cities.鈥澛�

Jill Baumgartner, Associate Professor and William Dawson Scholar, Department of Epidemiology, Biostatistics & Occupational Health and Institute for Health and Social Policy

鈥淭he biggest health threat from wildfire smoke is from very small microscopic particles that can penetrate deep into your lungs and can cause a wide range of health problems, from less serious ones like burning eyes and a runny nose to very serious chronic heart and lung diseases. In fact, thousands of Canadians die every year from exposure to air pollution from sources that wildfire smoke.鈥�
