2022, Atmospheric EnvironmentCitation Excerpt :Previous studies suggested that wildfires have increased in frequency, intensity, and area, and thus may stress the control and management of air quality in North American in the future (McClure and Jaffe, 2018; O'Dell et al., 2019). Some epidemiologic studies observed increased morbidity in patients with respiratory diseases in BB polluted areas (Naeher et al., 2007; Sutherland et al., 2005). In China, crop residues remain an important fuel in most rural regions.
