Wearable sensors have successfully been used in recent studies to monitor cigarette smoking events and analyze people's smoking behavior. Respiratory inductive plethysmography (RIP) has been employed to track breathing and to identify characteristic ...
Bushfires are becoming more frequent and intensive due to changing climate. Those that occur close to vineyards can cause smoke contamination of grapevines and grapes, which can affect wines, producing smoke-taint. At present, there are no available ...

BACKGROUND: Wildland fire (wildfire; bushfire) pollution contributes to poor air quality, a risk factor for premature death. The frequency and intensity of wildfires are expected to increase; improved tools for estimating exposure to fire smoke are v...
INTRODUCTION: Estimating PM concentrations and their prediction uncertainties at a high spatiotemporal resolution is important for air pollution health effect studies. This is particularly challenging for California, which has high variability in nat...

PURPOSE: Automatic recognition and removal of smoke in surgical procedures can reduce risks to the patient by supporting the surgeon. Surgical smoke changes its visibility over time, impacting the vision depending on its amount and the volume of the ...
Wine aroma is an important quality trait in wine, influenced by its volatile compounds. Many factors can affect the composition and levels (concentration) of volatile aromatic compounds, including the water status of grapevines, canopy management, an...
