Abstract:

Using ground-based observation and satellite remote sensing data from 2006 to 2020 the smoke effect from distant wildfires in Siberia on the electrical state of the surface air layer has been studied. The cases were considered where smoke covered the troposphere down to the surface layer and where smoke was observed only in the middle and upper troposphere. It is found that smoke from wildfires in these cases has a strong but different effect on the electrical state of the surface air layer.
