Epidemiological statistical models: log(E(Ykt)) = α + β exposure metrickt + kγkakt+ …other covariates
Hypothesis
•High spatio-temporal resolution in air quality/exposure data will better reveal the relationships between ambient air quality and health outcomes

•NERL is developing AQ surfaces from AQS data and CMAQ results using HB model1
– Daily PM2.5 and 8-hr Ozone– 36km CONUS and 12km eastern half US– 2001 to 2006 done; subsequent years underway
•CDC’s Tracking program is using HBM to develop AQ indicators– Currently available on the Tracking Network
• http://ephtracking.cdc.gov/– Made available to states and other CDC programs
•MATCH program / county health rankings http://www.countyhealthrankings.org/
•CDC and its partners are also using HBM predictions for health associations and impact assessments
