Minimize the Bad Days: Wildland Fire Response and Suppression Success
On the Ground Effective wildland fire response and suppression are critical for reducing the size of frequent and severe wildfires, thereby reducing the risk of post-fire conversion to invasive annual grass-dominated plant communities.

A Suite of smoke tools for forecasting and managing air quality impacts from fires
Dealing with smoke is a growing issue as larger and more frequent wildfires and increasing populations amplify the various concerns generated by smoke exposure--from firefighter and transportation safety to economic losses to health effects.

Wildland-urban interface fire ashes as a major source of incidental nanomaterials.
Although metal and metalloid concentrations in wildfire ashes have been documented, the nature and concentrations of incidental nanomaterials (INMs) in wildland-urban interface (WUI) fire ashes have received considerably less attention.

Chemical Tomography in a Fresh Wildland Fire Plume: A Large Eddy Simulation (LES) Study
Wildland fires involve complicated processes that are challenging to represent in chemical transport models. Recent airborne measurements reveal remarkable chemical tomography in fresh wildland fire plumes, which remain yet to be fully explored using ...
