In the US, wildfires and prescribed burning present significant challenges to air regulatory agencies attempting to achieve and maintain compliance with air quality regulations. Fire emission factors (EF) are essential input for the emission models...

Models of atmospheric composition rely on fire emissions inventories to reconstruct and project impacts of biomass burning on air quality, public health, climate, ecosystem dynamics, and land-atmosphere exchanges. Many such global inventories use...

Regional to global-scale biomass burning emissions inventories are primarily based on satellite-derived burned area or fire radiative power (FRP), and most rely on conversions to fuel consumption prior to the emissions estimation stage. This is...

Although representing only a small mass fraction of the emissions from biomass burning, the emitted particle-phase organic species (organic aerosol, OA) exert importance influences on visibility, climate, and human health. Wildland fire, both...

Although representing only a small mass fraction of the emissions from biomass burning, black carbon (BC) exerts a strong influence on climate. As a component of the atmospheric aerosol, BC absorbs visible light and warms the adjacent air, potentially...

Smoke may present the most intractable barrier of all to implementing more enlightened fire management. The benefits of a prescribed fire program can only be realized if the public and regulatory agencies agree that the air quality impacts are...

Smoke from wildland fires releases dramatic amounts of PM, CO, SO2, NOx, VOC and other chemical species. Meanwhile, high level of O3 can build up as a result of the emissions. These air pollutants can cause serious consequence to regional and local air...

Fires are a major source of gaseous and particulate pollutant, including black carbon (BC). In combination with organic carbon (OC), nitrogen oxides (NOx), and volatile organic compounds (VOCs), BC from fire emissions causes air quality degradation. BC...

Peat fires in Southeast Asia have become a major annual source of trace gases and particles to the regional–global atmosphere. The assessment of their influence on atmospheric chemistry, climate, air quality, and health has been uncertain partly due to...
