Biomass burning (BB) is a significant air pollution source, with global, regional and local
impacts on air quality, public health and climate. Worldwide an extensive range of studies …

Organic carbon (OC) accounts for a large fraction of atmospheric aerosol and has profound
effects on air quality, atmospheric chemistry, and climate forcing. The molecular composition …

Black carbon aerosol plays a unique and important role in Earth's climate system. Black
carbon is a type of carbonaceous material with a unique combination of physical properties …

Wildfires emit significant amounts of pollutants that degrade air quality. Plumes from three
wildfires in the western US were measured from aircraft during the Studies of Emissions and …

Biomass burning is a major source of atmospheric particulate matter (PM) with impacts on
