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 …

Biomass burning emits particles (black carbon and primary organic aerosol) and precursor
vapors to the atmosphere that chemically and physically age in the atmosphere. This …

Characteristic organic aerosol (OA) emission ratios (ERs) and normalized excess mixing
ratios (NEMRs) for biomass burning (BB) events have been calculated from ambient …

Intense wildfires burning> 360 000 acres in San Diego during October, 2007 provided a
unique opportunity to study the impact of wildfires on local air quality and biomass burning …

We estimate the contributions from biomass burning (summer wildfires, other fires,
residential biofuel, and industrial biofuel) to seasonal and annual aerosol concentrations in …

The last decade has seen tremendous advances in atmospheric aerosol particle research
that is often performed in the context of climate and global change science. Biomass …

This paper investigates the physical and chemical characteristics of aerosols at ground level
at a site heavily impacted by biomass burning. The site is located near Porto Velho …

Oxidative potential (OP), which is the ability of certain components in atmospheric particles
to generate reactive oxidative species (ROS) and deplete antioxidants in vivo, is a prevailing …

Biomass burning particulate matter (BBPM) affects regional air quality and global climate,
with impacts expected to continue to grow over the coming years. We show that studies of …

Biomass burning represents a major global source of aerosols impacting direct radiative
forcing and cloud properties. Thus, the goal of a number of current studies involves …
