Biomass burning aerosol over the Amazon: analysis of aircraft, surface and satellite observations using a global aerosol model

<p>Vegetation fires emit large quantities of aerosol into the atmosphere, impacting regional air quality and climate. Previous work has used comparisons of simulated and observed aerosol optical depth (AOD) in regions heavily impacted by fires to suggest that emissions of aerosol particles fro...
