I'm very pleased on behalf of co-authors to be able to share this, just published, paper summarizing the @bburnedscience.bsky.social Fire Emissions Workshop in Nov 2023. MODIS has been critical to fire emission estimation for the past two decades & the paper reviews 9 widely used emissions datasets.

New @harvard.edu research, along w/ Dr. @tinaliu.bsky.social, launches an online platform to help identify areas in need of controlled burns or other #wildfire management strategies, to increase safety and reduce smoke exposure. 🔥 More: seas.harvard.edu/news/2025/06... @soa-mazing.bsky.social

Our new paper shows how recent prescribed (Rx) burns in the western US impacted later wildfires. We find that Rx fires reduced wildfire severity + net smoke emissions, even when factoring in smoke from Rx fires. But, we find that these Rx fires were less effective in the wildland-urban interface.

Accompanying the paper, Karina also created a YouTube video demoing the Earth Engine tool, very cool! www.youtube.com/watch?v=P_yD... This project was co-led by @tinaliu.bsky.social and myself

🚨Preprint alert: Led by Karina Chung (an undergrad!), we develop a wildfire smoke risk index that accounts for historical burned area, fuel consumption, and customized land management in Google Earth Engine 🌎 A useful tool to weigh risk-outcome scenarios 🔥 eartharxiv.org/repository/v...

This article highlights some of our work over the last few years on NW India's agricultural fires, a seasonal and episodic source of regional air pollution. It was great to talk to Karishma Mehrotra at WaPo, and these anecdotes from farmers are especially important. #fires 🔥 #AirPollution 💨 #India
