Health System Reform in the United States
In 2010, the United States adopted its first-ever comprehensive set of health system reforms in the Affordable Care Act (ACA). Implementation of the law, though politically contentious and controversial, has now reached a stage where reversal of most elements of the law is no longer feasible. The controversial portions of the law that expand affordable health insurance coverage to most U.S. cit...
متن کاملFire and biofuel contributions to annual mean aerosol mass concentrations in the United States
We estimate the contributions from biomass burning (summer wildfires, other fires, residential biofuel, and industrial biofuel) to seasonal and annual aerosol concentrations in the United States. Our approach is to use total carbonaceous (TC) and non-soil potassium (ns-K) aerosol mass concentrations for 2001–2004 from the nationwide IMPROVE network of surface sites, together with satellite fire...
متن کاملPredicted secondary organic aerosol concentrations from the oxidation of isoprene in the eastern United States.
Isoprene, the most abundant non-methane hydrocarbon emitted into the troposphere, has generally not been considered a major source of SOA due to the relatively high volatility of its oxidation products. In this study, the SOA formed from the oxidation of isoprene is predicted using a three-dimensional chemical transport model, PMCAMx, across the eastern U.S. for July, October, January, and Apri...
متن کاملAttributing Accelerated Summertime Warming in the Southeast United States to Recent Reductions in Aerosol Burden: Indications from Vertically-Resolved Observations
During the twentieth century, the southeast United States cooled, in direct contrast with widespread global and hemispheric warming. While the existing literature is divided on the cause of this so-called “warming hole,” anthropogenic aerosols have been hypothesized as playing a primary role in its occurrence. In this study, unique satellite-based observations of aerosol vertical profiles are c...
متن کاملVole Control in the Eastern United States
The meadow vole (Microtus ennsylvanicus) and pine vole M_. pinetorum) are major pests in fruit orchards in the eastern U.S. These species damage trees by gnawing the bark or root systems during the winter months, thus, reducing the fruit yields or in many cases actually killing the trees. Orchard owners generally use an integrated pest management approach involving a combination of methods: (1)...
