New modeling study funded by AC4 uses a chemical transport model to evaluate commonly used volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions inventories and compare with observational datasets from the FIREX-AQ and WE-CAN field campaigns.
Using data from the FIREX-AQ field campaign, a new AC4-funded research study develops a comparison between aerosol concentration and the way aerosol particles scatter light in the atmosphere, offering new insights into wildfire smoke evolution.
