Datasets for Health Impacts of Future Prescribed Fire Smoke: Considerations from an Exposure Scenario in California

Required data to prepare and execute analysis of the data included in this published study. This includes (1) mapping daily mean exposure of total ambient, WF, RX, and fRx PM2.5; (2) calculating annual person-days of exposure; (3) calculating and mapping the fraction of population exposure (in person-days) in the Historical Period (2008-2016) &amp; Future Rx Scenario; (4) calculating the fraction of PM2.5-attributed cardiorespiratory emergency department (ED) visits by HYSPLIT-modeled PM2.5 smoke strata (μg/m3) in California; (5) calculating and plotting average daily PM2.5-attributed burden rates for cardiorespiratory emergency department (ED) visits by HYSPLIT-modeled PM2.5 smoke strata (μg/m3); (6) estimating annual prescribed fire smoke-attributed cardiorespiratory burden rates per 100,000 persons in the Historical Period (2008-2016), Future Prescribed Fire Scenario, and mapping the change in annual prescribed fire-related burden rates between the Historical Period and Future Scenario.Please note, raw health data is not provided due to confidentiality of personal health information used for research. Aggregated estimates of PM2.5-attributed ED visit counts and rates per 100,000 are provided by strata of smoke PM2.5.<br>Data documentation ReadMe files for data and R scripts are provided. See:1.)
