Air Quality and HealthInternational trade redistributes air-pollution-related health burdens, but limited data have precluded detailed study at the country level.4Wang S (2026)International trade and air-quality-related mortality.
Air Quality and HealthWe couple economic, atmospheric transport, and epidemiological models to analyze health impacts of trade between countries with disparate GDP levels.4Wang S (2026)International trade and air-quality-related mortality.
Air Quality and HealthRecently, lichens have also been found to be highly responsive to rising air temperatures associated with global warming, offering promise to detect biological impacts of climate change in the natural environment on these slow‐growing, long‐lived organisms (Aptroot and van Herk ; Sancho et al. ; Stapper and John ).4Colesie Claudia (2026)Lichens as Biomonitors of Air Quality and Climate
Air Quality and Healthpulchella Xanthoria parietina P adscendens Arthonia radiata Counoy et al. () also report the effects of oxidized and reduced forms of atmospheric nitrogen pollutants on lichens.4Colesie Claudia (2026)Lichens as Biomonitors of Air Quality and Climate
Air Quality and HealthThe reasons for the contrasting effects of the pollutants on these two lichen species remain obscure, but serve to underline the complexities of disentangling the impacts of oxidized and reduced forms of nitrogen on lichens in the natural environment (Greaver et al. ).4Colesie Claudia (2026)Lichens as Biomonitors of Air Quality and Climate
Air Quality and Health2007 2023 1970 2007 2019 2015 Lichens—morphologically and physiologically integrated symbioses between at least one fungus and at least one phototroph (typically a green alga or a cyanobacterium)—are among the most iconic and widespread symbiotic organisms, and are widely used as indicators of environmental quality.4Colesie Claudia (2026)Lichens as Biomonitors of Air Quality and Climate
