The Earth's atmosphere is composed of an enormous variety of chemical species associated
with trace gases and aerosol particles whose composition and chemistry have critical …

Abstract The NOAA/NASA Fire Influence on Regional to Global Environments and Air
Quality (FIREX‐AQ) experiment was a multi‐agency, inter‐disciplinary research effort to:(a) …

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 …

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted from biomass burning impact air quality and
climate. Laboratory studies have shown that the variability in VOC speciation is largely …

Ambient ozone (O3) concentrations in Southeast Michigan (SEMI) can exceed the US
National Ambient Air Quality Standard. Despite past efforts to measure O3 precursors and …

The impact of biomass burning (BB) on the atmospheric burden of volatile organic
compounds (VOCs) is highly uncertain. Here we apply the GEOS-Chem chemical transport …

The size and frequency of wildfires in the western United States have been increasing and
this trend is projected to continue, with increasing adverse consequences for human health …

Fireworks are widely used in celebrations worldwide. The effects of fireworks on the
physicochemical characteristics of atmospheric particles are well documented. However, the …

Emission factors (EFs) are crucial in understanding the effects of wildfire emissions on air
quality. We examined the variability of EFs of three wildfires (Nethker, Castle, and 204 Cow) …

Industrial emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) directly impact air quality
downwind of facilities and contribute to regional ozone and secondary organic aerosol …
