Kurzfassung:
Wildfires emit large amounts of pollutants. This work quantifies the emissions of a range of both gaseous and particulate species from U.S. wildfires using measurements performed on research aircraft. The results indicate that wildfires are a large source of particulate pollution in the western states and that the source is currently underestimated by more than a factor of three in emissions inventories. Comparison of these results to those obtained from prescribed burning indicates that wildfires are a larger source of pollution.
