Evaluation of WRF-chem simulations of NO2 and CO from biomass burning over East Africa and its surrounding regions

Abstract In East Africa, biomass burning in the savanna region emits nitrogen dioxide (NO2), carbon monoxide (CO), and aerosols among other species. These emissions are dangerous air pollutants which pose a health risk to the population. They also affect the radiation budget. Currently, limited acad...
