Abstract
⺠We investigate the impact on gaseous air pollutants downwind of a Mediterranean wildfire. ⺠We use the “off-line” coupling between an atmospheric model and a fire spread model. ⺠The plume rise is more sensitive to the sensible heat flux released by the fire. ⺠High concentrations in ozone precursors are simulated close and downwind of the fire. ⺠The depletion of ozone is reproduced in the smoke plume near and downwind of the fire.
