Abstract The 2020 wildfires caused widespread elevated fine particulate matter (PM2.5) concentrations across the western U.S. The Colorado Front Range experienced multiple smoke episodes from nearby fires and fires hundreds of kilometers away. Multiple days (88 total) with elevated PM2.5 along the Front Range occurred in 2020 between July and October ...

A machine learning framework integrating multisource seismic, social, and geographic data accurately predicts kilometer‐scale seismic intensity, enabling rapid postearthquake damage assessment during data‐scarce “black‐box” periods. ABSTRACT Accurate and rapid assessment of seismic intensity is crucial for postearthquake emergency response.

Abstract The East/Japan Sea (EJS) is a semi‐enclosed marginal sea that has experienced rapid sea surface temperature (SST) warming exceeding 0.9°C since the 1980s, which has intensified the occurrence of marine heatwaves (MHWs). Its semi‐enclosed nature amplifies the influence of external climate forcing, making reliable projections of future SST and ...

Inside the Fire Plume Chemical Interactions: A Review on Key Processes and Future Directions
Abstract Fire plumes are rising columns of heated air masses, consisting of gaseous and particulate matter generated by combustion, affecting air quality, climate and public health. The chemical species released undergo secondary reactions and participate in chemical and physical interactions, altering the properties of the fire plume.
