El dinero proviene de la Agencia de Protecci\u00f3n Ambiental de EE. UU. y apoyar\u00e1 el nuevo Centro de Pr\u00e1ctica e Investigaci\u00f3n de Humo de Incendios Forestales de la Universidad de Oreg\u00f3n.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Un equipo de estudiantes y profesores se basa en investigaciones ya realizadas a trav\u00e9s de la\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/resilient.uoregon.edu\/ewp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Programa de mano de obra del ecosistema<\/a>, una empresa conjunta entre la UO y la Universidad Estatal de Oreg\u00f3n.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cass Moseley es profesor de investigaci\u00f3n y asesor principal de pol\u00edticas del EWP y dirigir\u00e1 el nuevo centro. Ella dijo que los incidentes recientes en la regi\u00f3n, incluidos los incendios del D\u00eda del Trabajo de 2020, han aumentado la necesidad de esta investigaci\u00f3n. Muchas partes de Oreg\u00f3n, incluido el sur del valle de Willamette, estuvieron ahogadas por el smog durante casi dos semanas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;\u201c(Esos incendios) fueron una verdadera llamada de atenci\u00f3n sobre los peligros del humo de los incendios forestales\u201d, dijo Moseley a KLCC. \u201cY vimos esta ca\u00edda en Oakridge, varias semanas de humo muy denso a medida que el fuego se asent\u00f3 en ese valle y realmente se qued\u00f3. Y esa comunidad dedic\u00f3 mucho tiempo y energ\u00eda a responder a ese evento de humo\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>El dinero llega justo antes de la temporada de incendios forestales de 2023 y fue anunciado por los senadores estadounidenses Jeff Merkley y Ron Wyden. Los dem\u00f3cratas de Oreg\u00f3n dicen que han obtenido estos fondos para ayudar a las comunidades a prepararse mejor para los eventos de humo de incendios forestales.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>En un comunicado conjunto, Wyden y Merkley dicen que los datos del Departamento de Calidad Ambiental de Oreg\u00f3n muestran que los d\u00edas con mala calidad del aire debido al humo de los incendios forestales han aumentado considerablemente desde 2015.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>El Centro de Investigaci\u00f3n y Pr\u00e1ctica de Humo de Incendios Forestales se centrar\u00e1 en la planificaci\u00f3n y preparaci\u00f3n de la comunidad y el hogar, las formas de comunicar mejor los riesgos del humo y las acciones de protecci\u00f3n al p\u00fablico en general, y el desarrollo de una planificaci\u00f3n, preparaci\u00f3n y respuesta efectivas durante los eventos de humo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Un \u00e1rea de inter\u00e9s es qu\u00e9 toxinas se liberan cuando se queman las estructuras hechas por el hombre, a diferencia de los bosques. Mucha investigaci\u00f3n se ha centrado en el humo de la quema de madera y estructuras de madera, pero menos en pl\u00e1sticos, vidrio, combustibles y otros materiales sint\u00e9ticos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mosely dijo que con los incendios forestales regionales cada vez m\u00e1s grandes e intensos, la exposici\u00f3n al humo tambi\u00e9n est\u00e1 aumentando. Agreg\u00f3 que es importante que los investigadores aprendan c\u00f3mo ayudar a las comunidades y los gobiernos a adaptarse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSabemos que los incendios seguir\u00e1n ocurriendo\u201d, dijo. \u201cEs una parte natural del ecosistema en Occidente. Y con el cambio clim\u00e1tico, el fuego se est\u00e1 haciendo m\u00e1s grande. La gente habla cada vez m\u00e1s de megaincendios y, entonces, \u00bfc\u00f3mo se adaptan las comunidades y se vuelven m\u00e1s resistentes al fuego y al humo que crean esos incendios?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moseley dijo que el centro tiene tres co-investigadores y un investigador principal que lidera el grupo, as\u00ed como asistentes de investigaci\u00f3n y estudiantes de pregrado y posgrado que ayudan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Los funcionarios de salud han expresado su preocupaci\u00f3n por los efectos a largo plazo de respirar part\u00edculas, especialmente para los muy ancianos, los muy j\u00f3venes y aquellos con problemas de salud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u00a92023, KLCC.<\/em><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tuesday, April 11, 2023 By:&nbsp; Brian Bull OPB Efforts to understand the effects and risks of wildfire smoke have received an $800,000 boost.
