The model Qiu and his colleagues used in the analysis aligns with previous research, finding that a hotter planet leads to more fires—and therefore more smoke. Then, they used a previously-developed ...

The Friday model shows the sooty air moving southward from the fire in Mariposa County into the San Joaquin Valley Wednesday afternoon and overnight. As an upper-level ridge of high pressure starts to ...

Many of the most advanced climate models simulate smoke that is darker, or more light absorbing, than what researchers see in observations. A study of biomass burning aerosols led by University of ...

We have polls to try to gauge public opinion. We have models to forecast atmospheric conditions. Sometimes they’re wrong. Just as pollsters sometimes fail to correctly predict elections, weather and ...

Wildfire season isn’t just about charred forests and hazy skies anymore. The smoke from those fires is doing something sneaky ...
