Current forest monitoring technologies including satellite remote sensing, manned/piloted
aircraft, and observation towers leave uncertainties about a wildfire's extent, behavior, and …

Wildland fire is a major global driver in the exchange of aerosols between terrestrial
environments and the atmosphere. This exchange is commonly quantified using emission …

The atmosphere contains a diverse reservoir of microbes but the sources and factors
contributing to microbial aerosol variability are not well constrained. To advance …

Emissions from a stand replacement prescribed burn were sampled using an unmanned
aircraft system (UAS, or “drone”) in Fishlake National Forest, Utah, USA Sixteen flights over …

The impact of the planetary boundary layer (PBL) structure on the vertical distribution of
aerosols in Northeast China, which experiences air pollution frequently in autumn and …

With the increase in commercially available small unmanned aircraft systems (UAS), new
observations in extreme environments are becoming more obtainable. One such application …

Studies of the emissions from wildland fires are important for understanding the role of these
events in the production, transport, and fate of emitted gases and particulate matter, and …

This research explores the gas-sensing characteristics of undoped SnO 2, as well as indium
(In: SnO 2) and titanium (Ti: SnO 2) doped SnO 2 nanostructures, which were synthesized …

Wildland fire is a major producer of aerosols from combustion of vegetation and soils, but
little is known about the abundance and composition of smoke's biological content …

This study aims to develop a concept of a passive volumetric flow control system for gas
sampling applications onboard fixed-wing UAS based on the pressure field around airfoils …
