The volatile nature of biomass burning organics may complicate the evolution of organics in laboratory smog-chamber experiments and in ambient plumes. We simulate the evolution of organic mass (including gas and particles) in the chamber experiments using the TwO-Moment Aerosol…

Smoke emission factors (EFs) have been developed for a variety of wildland fuels beginning in the late 1960s. Many of these EFs have been presented in a variety of outlets and there is no centralized repository containing many of the EFs developed in the 1970s and 1980s. This…

This data product consists of measurements of smoke plume rise, emissions, and dispersion in and around eight wildfires in the western United States and prescribed fires in California, Idaho, and North Carolina. Eleven wildland fires were investigated between August 2009 and…

Keywords: air quality, LiDAR - Light Detection and Ranging, smoke plumes, smoke transport
Lesson Overview: In this activity, students learn about 3 concepts: the nature of smoke from wildland fires (through a technical reading), the ways in which smoke disperses into the atmosphere (through a demonstration and presentations), and some of the ways in which people can…

Keywords: PM2.5, PM - particulate matter, health impacts, smoke dispersion
Lesson Overview: From a lab demonstration or video, students learn how smoke disperses (or doesn’t), depending on atmospheric conditions. They learn how smoke affects visibility and human health, especially if it sticks around for days or weeks instead of dispersing into the…

Keywords: smoke dispersion, human health, visibility
Lesson Overview: In this activity, students learn that smoke from wildland fires can either disperse readily or stick around, reducing visibility on the earth’s surface and making it difficult to breathe. Then they apply health guidelines regarding smoke to a very important…
