1. Biomass Smoke Emissions and Transport: Community-based Satellite and Surface Data Analysis R.B. Husar Washington University in St. Louis Presented at NARSTO Workshop on Innovative Methods for Emission-Inventory Development and Evaluation Austin, TX ; October 14-17, 2003

11. SeaWiFS, TOMS, Surface Visibility, May 98 Surface ozone depressed under smoke

12. Aerosol Optical Depth and Solar Radiation Mexican Smoke Event, May 1998 Spectral aerosol optical thickness measured by the AERONET network at Bondville, IL. Solar radiation data derived from Shadowband Radiometer Network at Big Bend, TX.

13. Smoke Complexity Management: R eal-Time A erosol W atch (RAW) RAW is an open communal activity to study aerosol events (e.g. smoke and dust) , including detection, tracking and impact on PM and haze. The main asset of RAW is the community of data analysts, modelers, managers and others participating in the production of actionable knowledge from observations, models and human reasoning The RAW community is supported by a networking infrastructure based on open Internet standards (web services) and a set of web-tools. Initial web tools include the Community Website for open community interaction, the Analysts Console for diverse data access and the Managers Console for AQ management decision support.
