AB - Fire emissions can strongly impact atmospheric abundances of trace gases and aerosols, in ways that vary strongly in time and space. There is emerging understanding that fires do not only influence areas in the lower troposphere, where the land-surface is in contact with the atmosphere, but can also have significant effects on the upper troposphere and even the stratosphere. Here, I will present example results from our ongoing global modelling studies investigating such effects. First, an overview of recent results will be presented, i.e. from (a) a case study on how high-altitude injections can influence stratospheric composition, and (b) a study that demonstrated how satellite observations can be used to understand the transport of fire pollution into the upper troposphere/lower stratosphere (UTLS), and how such measurements can be used to evaluate convective processes in composition-climate models. Subsequently, the role of typical low-injection fires in driving the interannual variability of UTLS composition will be discussed based on results from recent global model experiments, with a focus on impacts on CO and ozone. The findings show a major role of fire emissions in driving UTLS CO and a minor role in driving UTLS ozone interannual variability.
