Purpose
This project aims to use satellite measurements and targeted experiments to evaluate and improve the current understanding of chemical emissions from Canadian forest fires, crucial for enhancing modeling of smoke plumes and assessing their impacts on human health and the environment. By focusing on obtaining glyoxal and formaldehyde column densities and refining emission factors and branching ratios, the research seeks to advance forest fire smoke modeling, potentially mitigating the societal challenges posed by increasing prevalence of forest fires.
