This book was released on 2010 with total page 728 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report considers the biological and behavioral mechanisms that may underlie the pathogenicity of tobacco smoke. Many Surgeon General's reports have considered research findings on mechanisms in assessing the biological plausibility of associations observed in epidemiologic studies. Mechanisms of disease are important because they may provide plausibility, which is one of the guideline criteria for assessing evidence on causation. This report specifically reviews the evidence on the potential mechanisms by which smoking causes diseases and considers whether a mechanism is likely to be operative in the production of human disease by tobacco smoke. This evidence is relevant to understanding how smoking causes disease, to identifying those who may be particularly susceptible, and to assessing the potential risks of tobacco products.

This book was released on 2016 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this dissertation, we use radiosondes and satellite observation, reanalysis datasets, as well as radiative and trajectory models to document the relationship between the low-level clouds, smoke and meteorology over the southeast Atlantic. The southeast Atlantic presents a natural environment with one of the world's largest marine low-level clouds, occurring along with the largest consumption of biomass fire over the adjacent southern African continent. This combination results in an extensive region of above-cloud biomass burning aerosols (predominantly smoke) over the marine low-level clouds, whereby the elevated smoke could lead to the stabilization of the lower troposphere, reduction of the cloud-top entrainment, and the build-up of water vapor within the boundary layer, which may eventually lead to increases in cloud fraction and decreases in cloud-top heights, in a process called semi-direct aerosol effect. The smokes are transported at a preferred altitude (∼750hPa -- 550hPa) by a background easterly winds between July and October. During the same period, strong surface winds and ocean-influenced cold surface temperature characterize the meteorology within the boundary layer. The marine low-level cloud region is also associated with strong climatological subsidence above it, and cloud-top temperature inversion layer. The meteorological variations occurring above and below the low-level clouds are capable of influencing the cloud properties, and therefore may confound with the aerosol effects, making the separation of the aerosol and meteorological influences, on the low-level cloud, a very difficult challenge. We address this problem by identifying the dynamical and thermodynamical variations above the low-level clouds during the the peak aerosol months (July--October). Specifically, three areas are explored in this dissertation: the convolution of the dynamical and moisture effects with shortwave-absorbing aerosols over the low-level clouds; the role of the mid-tropospheric easterly-transporting system on both the elevated smoke and the low-level cloud environments; and the synoptic-scale sensitivity of the low-level clouds to a range of interacting meteorological conditions, with and without the presence of the elevated smoke. First, the analysis of the radiosondes at St. Helena Island, a small island located approximately 1800 km offshore of continental Africa (15.9°S, 5.6°W), shows the presence of mid-tropospheric moisture within the smoke layer, and above the low-level clouds. The smoke layer has previously been associated with hot and dry layer, perhaps in analogy to the Saharan air layer. The mid-tropospheric moisture over the south-east Atlantic has not been previously documented, and it occurs more than 70% of the time between September and October. During the same months, as the aerosol loading increases, the amount of the mid-tropospheric moisture also increases. The result of the radiative transfer calculations shows that the mid-tropospheric moisture-induced longwave cooling accounts for about 30% of the aerosol-induced shortwave warming, within the smoke layer. At the cloud top, increased mid-tropospheric moisture could increase cloud-top heights by enhancing the downwelling longwave radiation at the cloud top, and potentially reducing the turbulent mixing within the boundary layer, which may ultimately reduce the cloud fraction. This process essentially opposes the cloud-thickening semi-direct aerosol effect due to the elevated smoke alone. Dynamical changes occurring during the polluted condition over the southeast Atlantic include enhanced above-cloud warm horizontal temperature advection, and reduced subsidence. The flow is from the warmer adjacent continent air, and the warm advection directly above the marine low-level cloud is also capable of the increases in cloudiness through its influence on stability, that is separate from the stability associated with semi-direct aerosol effect. In addition, though a previous modeling study focussing on the southeast Atlantic has similarly identified the association between the elevated shortwave-absorbing aerosols (smoke) and the reduced subsidence, it remains unclear if the reduced subsidence is a response of the elevated aerosols alone, or an associated change in the above-cloud meteorological features, or both. Here, we show that during the September--October period, the southeast Atlantic is characterized by the Southern African Easterly Jet (AEJ-S), a region of maximum mid-tropospheric easterly winds responsible for the westward transport of both the aerosols and the moisture above the low-level clouds. The AEJ-S can be thought of as a southern counterpart of a better-known northern African easterly jet, and using the wealth of information available for the northern African easterly jet, we show that the AEJ-S is associated with induced upward motion directly below the jet, between 5°S-15°S. The AEJ-S-induced upward motion strengthens the large-scale ascent over the land, and therefore enhances the efficiency of trajectory-derived aerosol lifting emissions into the free-troposphere. Over ocean, the induced upward motion also reduces the large-scale subsidence over the marine low-level cloud. All else equal, the reduction of the offshore subsidence can be associated with reduction in nearby cloud fraction and increases in cloud-top heights, between 5°S-15°S. Between the effects of AEJ-S and the elevated aerosols on subsidence, the AEJ-S can be associated with 16% reduction in subsidence compared to 7% reduction by the elevated smoke-aerosols, between 5°S-15°S. By isolating the independent effects of selected above-cloud and surface-based meteorological influences during July--October period, it is shown that increases in lower tropospheric stability (LTS, defined as [theta]800hP a - [theta]1000hP a ), cold surface advection and warm 800 hPa horizontal temperature advection, all lead to increases in marine low-level cloudiness over the southeast Atlantic. In addition, the mid-tropospheric moisture is shown to independently result in reduction of cloud fraction, especially in the near- coastal region. Enhanced subsidence independently leads to increased cloudiness north of 20°S, but decreased cloudiness south of 20°S. The subsidence-induced reduction in cloudiness, south of 20°S, contributes significantly to counteracting the stability-induced increases in cloudiness over the same region. When aerosol is present north of 20°S, the effect of LTS on the low-level cloud is increased by about 13% over the region where the elevated aerosols are more likely separated from the underlying clouds, and by about 32% when the aerosols are more likely in contact with the underlying cloud layer. The results of this dissertation provide a detailed, useful meteorological context, highlighting new information, for the several multi-national upcoming field campaigns planned over the southeast Atlantic region. It also provides a useful understanding of the background dynamics and basic physical connections between the aerosols, the low-level clouds and the meteorology over the southeast Atlantic, that can be used in future studies involving aerosol-cloud-radiation interactions, and ultimately in numerical climate models to improve the estimation of climate sensitivity to subtropical low-level clouds.

This book was released on 2018-05-18 with total page 775 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Millions of Americans use e-cigarettes. Despite their popularity, little is known about their health effects. Some suggest that e-cigarettes likely confer lower risk compared to combustible tobacco cigarettes, because they do not expose users to toxicants produced through combustion. Proponents of e-cigarette use also tout the potential benefits of e-cigarettes as devices that could help combustible tobacco cigarette smokers to quit and thereby reduce tobacco-related health risks. Others are concerned about the exposure to potentially toxic substances contained in e-cigarette emissions, especially in individuals who have never used tobacco products such as youth and young adults. Given their relatively recent introduction, there has been little time for a scientific body of evidence to develop on the health effects of e-cigarettes. Public Health Consequences of E-Cigarettes reviews and critically assesses the state of the emerging evidence about e-cigarettes and health. This report makes recommendations for the improvement of this research and highlights gaps that are a priority for future research.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new aircraft is launched. Everybody was excited about its maiden flight. People were gearing up for its take off and the crew was ready to fly it over the stratosphere. Suddenly, the plane lost contact with the ATC while still in mid-air. The airport went chaotic and the media immediately jumped onto the scene asking various questions. Meanwhile, the government sent its naval fleets and Air Force to search for the plane in and around the Indian Ocean. Rough seas hinder the search party, and finally, it is discovered on the sea bed. When investigations begin, various questions pop up and various discoveries are made. But nothing seems to fit in and the puzzle keeps getting complicated. The investigators were confused as to what the real cause of the crash was. But they just knew that superstition was not the final answer. While the black box revealed some interesting facts, the chemical tests on various parts had another story to tell. Will the investigators analyze the whole scene and solve the puzzle or will the smoke stand still?
