Biomass burning is a major source of atmospheric particulate matter (PM) with impacts on
health, climate, and air quality. The particles and vapors within biomass burning plumes …

Since the publication of the compilation of biomass burning emission factors by Andreae
and Merlet (2001), a large number of studies have greatly expanded the amount of available …

In recent years, residential wood combustion (RWC) has become a major source of ambient
particulate matter (PM) in many developed countries, and in some of these countries even …

Biomass burning is the largest combustion-related source of volatile organic compounds
(VOCs) to the atmosphere. We describe the development of a state-of-the-science model to …

Fires and the aerosols that they emit impact air quality, health, and climate, but the
abundance and properties of carbonaceous aerosol (both black carbon and organic carbon) …

Biomass burning is an important source of aerosol and trace gases to the atmosphere, but
how these emissions change chemically during their lifetimes is not fully understood. As part …

After smoke from burning biomass is emitted into the atmosphere, chemical and physical
processes change the composition and amount of organic aerosol present in the aged …

Ice-nucleating particles (INPs) in biomass-burning aerosol (BBA) that affect cloud glaciation,
microphysics, precipitation, and radiative forcing were recently found to be driven by the …

Agricultural residues are among the most abundant biomass burned globally, especially in
China. However, there is little information on primary emissions and photochemical …

Biomass-burning organic-aerosol (OA) emissions are known to exhibit semi-volatile
behavior that impacts OA loading during plume transport. Because such semi-volatile …
