| Abstract | Wildfires greatly affect the environment and human health by creating small toxic particles. These particles, made under certain fire conditions, can get into the air we breathe, the soil, and the water, causing serious health and environmental problems. This project aims to study how different wildfire conditions and soil types affect the creation and properties of these toxic particles. We are especially interested in very small particles, less than 2.5 micrometers (PM2.5) – for comparison, a |
