From: Wildfire plumes in the Western US are reaching greater heights and injecting more aerosols aloft as wildfire activity intensifies

Figure 5

(a) A comparison of the distribution of MISR-observed and Freitas-modeled wildfire plume top heights occurring over the Western US and Canada during the months of August and September. (b) A map depicting the locations of the MISR-observed plumes used for validation, with color coding used to indicate whether a collocated plume from the modeled climatology agrees within the range of MISR uncertainty. These plumes represent the years 2008–2011 and 2017–2018, reflecting the limited temporal coverage of the MISR plume tops dataset.
