Global Monitoring and Forecasting of Biomass-Burning Smoke: Description of and Lessons From the Fire Locating and Modeling of Burning Emissions (FLAMBE) Program (2009, background): “Ozone from Siberian forest fires can impact air quality in the Pacific Northwest United States [1]; smoke from Central America and the Yucatan Peninsula impacts air quality from Texas to Georgia [2], [3]; some North American and Siberian plumes have even been shown to impact the eastern Atlantic and”
Effect of convection on the summertime extratropical lower stratosphere (2004, background): “[3] There is, however, plenty of anecdotal evidence that extratropical convection does penetrate well into the lowermost stratosphere [e.g., Roach, 1967; Poulida et al., 1996; Fischer et al., 2003], and even into the overworld (q > 380 K) [ Fromm and Servranckx, 2003; Fromm et al., 2000; Wang, 2003”
A mathematical model for predicting the maximum potential spotting distance from a crown fire (2012, background): “This structure, which can extend to the tropopause in the case of a large fire of high heat-release rate (Fromm and Servranckx 2003), often deposits downwind large amounts of ash and small charred fuel fragments (Anderson 1968; Pisaric 2002; Tinner et al. 2006), but seldom is reported as the source…”
Aerosol source plume physical characteristics from space-based multiangle imaging (2007, background): “Vertical advection forced by regional meteorology [e.g., Fromm and Servranckx, 2003], turbulent mixing, and air entrained from the plume surroundings, are also known to play key roles in early stage aerosol plume evolution for some situations.”
The value of multiangle measurements for retrieving structurally and radiatively consistent properties of clouds, aerosols, and surfaces (2005, methodology): “Using the UV aerosol index from the Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer (TOMS) as a proxy for aerosol altitude, Fromm and Servranckx (2003) performed a case study of the Chisholm fire in Alberta (May 2001) and inferred that intense convection injected smoke from this large fire up to stratospheric…”
Depolarization and lidar ratios at 355, 532, and 1064 nm and microphysical properties of aged tropospheric and stratospheric Canadian wildfire smoke (2018, background): “Within cumulus towers, enormous amounts of smoke can be injected into the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere (Fromm and Servranckx, 2003; Fromm et al., 2010; Rosenfeld et al., 2007; Peterson et al., 2017).”
