Evidence for the impact of fire activity on daily variations of IASI mid-tropospheric CO 2 anomalies at 8–11 km over South America: a pyroconvective fingerprint

Biomass burning is a major, highly variable source of atmospheric CO 2 , but its impact on the free troposphere remains difficult to quantify because of uncertainties in injection heights and transport. In the tropics, intense fires can trigger pyroconvective plumes that loft com...
