For 49 straight days, everyone in Seeley Lake was breathing smoke. A wildfire had ignited outside the small rural community in Montana, and the plume of smoke had parked itself over the houses. Air quality plummeted. At several moments, the concentration of particulate matter in the air exceeded the upper limit of what monitors could measure.
连续49天,Seeley Lake的每个人都在呼吸烟。一场野火在蒙大拿州的小型农村社区外被点燃,烟羽停在房屋上。空气质量暴跌。在片刻中,空气中颗粒物的浓度超过了监视器可以测量的上限。
Christopher Migliaccio, an associate professor of immunology at the University of Montana, saw an opportunity to do what few have ever done: study what happens after people get exposed to wildfire smoke.
