Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The current state of our knowledge includes some fire-related emission factors for both gaseous pollutants as well as particulate matter. There are works within the literature describing waste fires and their impact on air quality. However, gathering knowledge about the atmospheric impact of different fires in one singular Special Issue will be valuable.

Fires are one of the sources of air pollution that are seldom considered. However, large-scale incidents or specific types of fires have received the interest of researchers. The purpose of this Special Issue is to join and disseminate knowledge about the atmospheric impact of pollutants from different kinds of fires, including both estimates of industrial accidents, climate changes, as well as analysis of past events, with the aim of providing some insights into the causes and or impact, including environmental impact as well as socioeconomic and health impacts.

All types of articles about the atmospheric impact of fires are welcome to be submitted to this Special Issue. Research articles, short communications, as well as case studies are welcome.
