Abstract
⺠Wildfires produce approximately 170 Tg of O3 globally per year. ⺠Observations of ÎO3/ÎCO in fire plumes range from approximately â0.1 to 0.9. ⺠O3 production depends on fire emissions, photochemical reactions, meteorology and aerosol effects. ⺠Wildfires can contribute to exceedances of the ozone air quality standard.
