[H-CG28] Air Pollution and Health Effects of Agricultural Residue Burning and Pathways to Solutions

Tue. May 31, 2022 11:00 AM - 1:00 PM Online Poster Zoom Room (16) (Ch.16)

convener:Sachiko Hayashida(Research Institute for Humanity and Nature), convener:Wataru Takeuchi(Institute of Industrial Science, The University of Tokyo), Prabir Patra(Research Institute for Global Change, JAMSTEC), convener:Kazuyo Yamaji(Kobe University), Chairperson:Prabir Patra(Research Institute for Global Change, JAMSTEC), Mizuo Kajino(Meteorological Research Institute)

In this session we invite research presentations on agricultural activities and their impact on the environment, air pollution from agricultural residue burning and its impact on human health, and causes and countermeasures of agricultural residue burning. The burning of agricultural residues is widely practiced all over the world, and its carbon emission is estimated to be about a quarter of that from the total biomass burning. It is also a cause of air pollution and health hazards in many countries, making it an environmental problem that cannot be ignored. The objective of this session is to develop interdisciplinary research that links information on fire detection and agricultural land use using remote sensing with field surveys on agricultural activities. We welcome a wide range of interdisciplinary research, including related research that explores pathways to solve this problem.
