Cold Smoke: smoke-induced density currents cause unexpected smoke transport near large wildfires
The first observations of smoke-induced density currents originating from large wildfires are presented. Using a novel mobile Doppler lidar and additional in situ measurements, we document a deep (~ 2 km) smoke-filled density current that propagates more than 25 km at speeds up to 4.5 m s<sup>...
