Equity in the Distribution of Regulatory PM Monitors.

Unequal exposure to air pollution by race and socioeconomic status is well-documented in the U.S. However, relatively little research has examined inequities in the collection of PM data, creating a critical gap in understanding which neighborhood exposures are represented in these data sets.

What's the TEE: Metrics of Temperature Extremes in Europe NUTS Regions (1980-2024).

We generate datasets quantifying extreme temperature exposure in Europe using a variety of metrics at two sub-national spatial scales (NUTS 2 and NUTS 3) and three temporal scales (daily, extreme temperature wave, and yearly) from 1980-2024. These datasets capture the breadth of temperature metrics used in epidemiology, demography and environmental literature with 67 different metrics: including regionally-unusual temperature events (defined as temperatures above/below the 95/5 percentile of historical temperatures) and periods of sustained (consecutive day) exposure to extreme temperatures. Although publicly available, climate data format and spatial resolution rarely matches the structure, scale, and extent used to disseminate government statistics on health, economic, and demographic variables, and manipulating raw data is computationally expensive.

Construct validation of the Research Engagement Survey Tool (REST).

Background: The Research Engagement Survey Tool (REST) was developed to examine the level of partner (e.g., patients, caregivers, advocates, clinicians, community members) engagement in research studies.
