Characteristics and evolution of brown carbon in western United States wildfires

Characteristics and evolution of brown carbon in western United States wildfires

<p>Brown carbon (BrC) associated with aerosol particles in western United States wildfires was measured between July and August 2019 aboard the NASA DC-8 research aircraft during the Fire Influence on Regional to Global Environments and Air Quality (FIREX-AQ) study. Two BrC measurement methods...
