What you will find in these pages

Articles in JH&P span field studies, exposure assessment, policy analysis, and technical notes on cleanup and prevention. Typical topics include heavy metals and industrial chemicals in soil, air, and water, community health near waste sites, artisanal mining and chemical safety, and monitoring methods that teams can repeat in low-resource settings. Each issue groups editorials, original research, and shorter reports so readers can move from context to evidence in one place.
