Smoke particles absorb much of the thermal radiation from a large fire. This process affects the vertical velocity of the convection column. And it affects fire spread because of the effects of absorption on radiative heating of fuels ahead of the fire. The magnitude of these…

Our paper points out certain problems in current predictive methods on which most smoke management programs are based. These problems complicate research efforts to improve predictability of air quality impacts of forest burning. In addition, we offer a hypothesis, based on…

An experimental project on convective plumes initiated from the ground by an exceptionally powerful artificial heat source has been carried out. The heat source consisted of 97 oil burners releasing a total power of 600 MW. The measuring equipment consisted of a ground network…

The nitrogen-containing products of smog chamber reactions have been the subject of much controversy. Concern has arisen over nitrogen products because of the almost universally poor nitrogen balance reported for irradiated mixtures of hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides. Some…
