onstove.Biomass.relative_risk

Biomass.relative_risk() → float

Calculates the relative risk of contracting ALRI, COPD, IHD, lung cancer or stroke based on the adjusted

PM25 emissions. The equations and parameters used are based on the work done by Burnett et al.[R8cdc5dbca4d9-1]_

Returns:

rr_alri: float

Relative Risk of ALRI

rr_copd: float

Relative Risk of COPD

rr_ihd: float

Relative Risk of IHD

rr_lc: float

Relative Risk of lung cancer

rr_stroke: float

Relative Risk of stroke
