This repository supports valuation of wildfire smoke mortality benefits from climate mitigation, indicating its significance for climate policy.
This repository is to support the peer-review process of the manuscript entitled “Valuing wildfire smoke related mortality benefits from climate mitigation”. The repo contains three R codes and can be used to reproduce the two main text figures. Data contained in this repo: final_GMST_combined_20yrmean.rds: calculated global mean surface temperature (GMST) for GCMs and scenarios used in our analysis. smoke_county_20yrmean_dynamic.rds: county-level projected smoke PM2.5 annual concentrations of future climate scenarios (fire-fuel feedback incorporated). historical_death_gmst_2011_2020_mean_lag1.xlsx: estimated deaths due to smoke PM2.5 during the historical period (2011-2020). summ_death_20years_2020_2099_2part_CRF_dynamic_lag1.rds: estimated deaths due to fire smoke PM2.5 under future climate scenarios (population pattern fixed at 2019, fire-fuel feedback incorporated). SC-CO2_2025pulse_2partcrf_2poly_dynamic_lag1.parquet: estimated social cost of carbon from wildfire smoke PM2.5 and other sectors originally considered in GIVE. The pulse emission year is 2025. GIVE_Smoke_Module_Final.zip: contains our modifications to the GIVE model with a newly developed module for estimating wildfire smoke damage.
