Photochemical ozone in smoke from prescribed burning of forests

Systematic airborne measurements of ozone in smoke plumes from prescribed burning of forests demonstrate the extent to which ozone is generated by photochemical reactions. Ozone concentrations in the upper layer of the smoke plume can exceed 80 ppb, but a simple diffusion model shows that concentrat...

Zusammenfassung:Systematic airborne measurements of ozone in smoke plumes from prescribed burning of forests demonstrate the extent to which ozone is generated by photochemical reactions. Ozone concentrations in the upper layer of the smoke plume can exceed 80 ppb, but a simple diffusion model shows that concentrations at ground level are only marginally affected, except under special meteorological conditions.
