The Estimated Global Mortality Burden Attributable to Landscape Fire Smoke

Landscape fires, including forest, grass and peat fires, affect regional and global climate and air quality. This talk will describe the approaches used by our team to estimate landscape fire smoke exposure and the associated mortality at a global scale. This will include our approach to quantifying the sensitivity of the estimates to inherent uncertainties in exposure assessments, counterfactual exposure estimates and concentration response functions and our assessment of the influence of different global climatic conditions.
