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 …

Tropospheric ozone is a key air pollutant and greenhouse gas. Its fate strongly depends on
meteorological conditions and therefore subject to climate change influences. Such …

Ozone holds a certain fascination in atmospheric science. It is ubiquitous in the atmosphere,
central to tropospheric oxidation chemistry, yet harmful to human and ecosystem health as …

The goal of the Tropospheric Ozone Assessment Report (TOAR) is to provide the research
community with an up-to-date scientific assessment of tropospheric ozone, from the surface …

Wildfire activity is predicted to increase with global climate change, resulting in longer fire
seasons and larger areas burned. The emissions from fires are highly variable owing to …

Rapid warming at high latitudes, particularly in Siberia, has led to large wildfires in recent
years that cause widespread smoke plumes. These fires lead to substantial deterioration in …

Biomass burning from wildfires is a significant global source of aerosol and trace gases
which impact air quality, tropospheric and stratospheric composition, and climate. During the …

Within minutes after emission, complex photochemistry in biomass burning smoke plumes
can cause large changes in the concentrations of ozone (O 3) and organic aerosol (OA) …

Fires impact atmospheric composition through their emissions, which range from long-lived
gases to short-lived gases and aerosols. Effects are typically larger in the tropics and boreal …

The Northern Eurasian regions and Arctic Ocean will very likely undergo substantial
changes during the next decades. The arctic-boreal natural environments play a crucial role …
