1 week left to submit to our RX fire session 🔥👩‍🚒 Our invited speaker is Dr. Crystal Kolden @pyrogeog from UC Merced! #AGU23 See you in San Francisco!

One day left! 🔥👇

Join the AGU Atmos Sci Early Career Committee for a wildfire-themed webinar on Tues, August 22 at 10am PDT. Invited early career speakers (including @Dr_Dmals & Tina Liu 🔥) will present with time for Q&A. Hope to see you there! More details in flyer and comments below!

By burning vast layers of partially decomposed vegetable matter called peat, fires like those in Canada release even more greenhouse gases into the atmosphere hrvd.me/Wildfires098t

Important new preprint from Tina Liu 🔥 (+ friends) showing that the widely-used Hazard Mapping System (HMS) smoke product 🔥 is unreliable outside of the Western US. HMS has been used to study smoke in the East which should be reconsidered. Link below:

Published paper🚨 We design data-driven air pollution sensor networks that account for the legacy of racial/income disparities in the US. We present equitable sensor networks in St. Louis, Houston, Buffalo, and Boston; showing how low-cost sensors can be a way forward 🏙️🌆

In three weeks (7-9 November) the first BBURNED virtual workshop #BBURNED_FEW reviewing the current status and new developments of fire emission estimation will take place. More information, agenda and registration details can be found at www2.acom.ucar.edu/bburned/fire-e…

During Canada’s record-breaking 2023 fire season, NASA scientists tracked the blazes with a new system, FEDS, that uses NOAA & NASA satellite data to provide more frequent monitoring of fire activity, growth, and behavior than was previously available. go.nasa.gov/3Sc6Wf4

Just one week to go until the first #BBURNED_FEW virtual fire emissions workshop! See the information below for the link to the agenda and registration details.

Day 1 of the #BBURNED_FEW virtual workshop is underway with the first five presentations on biomass burning emissions datasets from Guido van der Werf Mark Parrington Johannes Kaiser Dr. Christine Wiedinmyer Ed Hyer & Arlindo da Silva. More info and agenda avaiable at www2.acom.ucar.edu/bburned/fire-e…

We’re pleased to share that most #GeoforGood23 sessions are now available on demand! You can watch them on our website at g.co/earth/GeoForGo… or on our YouTube playlist at youtube.com/playlist?list=… and we’ll be highlighting session recordings on this thread over the next

I had also created an #EarthEngine App to visualize NOAA's HMS smoke 💨 and fire 🔥 products. You can check out the app from link below; additional details are in my GitHub repo. Link: globalfires.earthengine.app/view/hms-smoke GitHub: github.com/tianjialiu/HMS…

For graduate students or postdocs interested in or currently applying for faculty positions, we wrote a guide to share our experiences and make the process less opaque!

This WaPo article by Karishma Mehrotra highlights some of our work over the last few years on NW India's agricultural fires, a seasonal and episodic source of regional air pollution. These anecdotes from farmers are especially important. #fires 🔥 #AirPollution 💨 #India
