Background: The record number of wildfires in the United States in recent years has led to an increased focus on developing tools to accurately forecast their impacts at high spatial and temporal resolutions.
Aims: The Warn-on-Forecast System for Smoke (WoFS-Smoke) was developed…

Global climate change and extreme weather has a profound impact on wildfire, and it is of great importance to explore wildfire patterns in the context of global climate change for wildfire prevention and management. In this paper, a wildfire spatial prediction model based on…

Rationale: Wildfires are increasing in intensity, duration, and frequency with smoke plums affecting the lives of millions over large geographic areas. The immune modulatory effects of wildfire smoke are unclear. We previously showed that a major wildfire smoke component, ozone…

Starting from point sources, wildfire smoke is important in the global aerosol system. The ability to characterize smoke near-source is key to modeling smoke dispersion and predicting air quality. With hemispheric views and 10-min refresh, imagers in Geostationary (GEO) orbit…

The vertical distribution of biomass burning aerosol (BBA) is important in regulating their impacts on weather and climate. The plume-rise process affects the injection height of BBA and interacts with the air parcel lifting and cloud processes. However, these processes are not…
