Self-lofting of wildfire smoke in the troposphere and stratosphere: simulations and space lidar observations
<p>Wildfire smoke is known as a highly absorptive aerosol type in the shortwave wavelength range. The absorption of sunlight by optically thick smoke layers results in heating of the ambient air. This heating is translated into self-lofting of the smoke up to more than 1 km in altitude per day...
