We estimate how acute air pollution exposure from wildfire smoke impacts human health in the U.S., allowing for … nonlinear effects. Wildfire smoke is pervasive and produces air quality shocks of varying intensity, depending on wind patterns … and plume thickness. Using administrative Medicare records for 2007-2019, we estimate that wildfire smoke accounts for 18 …
