Our latest open-access research on Arctic-boreal peat fire (pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…) was featured in the cover paper of Environmental Science & Technology @ACSPublications, where we investigated the interactions between snow and fire!! @Xinyan_Huang @Yunzhu_QIN

Happy to share our latest paper on smouldering emissions from peat fires: *Particles emitted from smouldering peat: size‐resolved composition and emission factors* doi.org/10.1039/D4EA00… Peat fires are among the largest wildfires on Earth, and their emissions contribute to extensive regional haze. In our study we evaluated the mass‐ and number‐weighted emission factors and the size‐resolved chemical composition of particles produced in laboratory peat smouldering fires. We found high levels of particle pollution, with metals being particularly concentrated in the fine particle fraction, raising concerns for regional air quality. Our findings provide valuable insights for future research on particle exposure health effects and atmospheric modelling.

@FranRestuccia @ERC_Research @KingsNMES @KingsCollegeLon @kcl_engineering Congratulations!

I am thrilled to share that my project FIREMOD has been funded by an #ERC Starting Grant. Very excited to embark on 5 years of research on wildfire modelling, to help improve predictions of when and why wildfires spread. @ERC_Research @KingsNMES #ERCStG #FireScience #Wildfires

I am immensely proud of seeing my PhD supervisor and friend, Prof Carlos Fernandez-Pello, being celebrated for his outstanding contributions to fire science. He is one of the pioneers of fundamental research that brings safety and sustainability to the world. ¡Enhorabuena Carlos! 🎉❤️

Today, #TheCombustionInstitute recognizes the second of four Gold Medal winners honored at the #40thISOC in Milan. Learn more about the 2024 #AlfredCEgertonGoldMedal recipient, A. Carlos Fernandez-Pello of @UCBerkeley: combustioninstitute.org/news/a-carlos-… Congratulations! #Combustion

New publication out on the Smoldering ignition and transition to flaming in wooden mulch beds exposed to firebrands under wind in the Fire Safety Journal. First in a series of work where we investigated the flammability of wooden mulches in California. doi.org/10.1016/j.fire…

At the welcome reception of #40thISOC, I had the honor of receiving Bernard Lewis Fellowship from @Combustion_Intl. I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to my postdoctoral and PhD advisers (@gollnerfire, Carlos Fernandez-Pello, and @Xinyan_Huang) for their unwavering support.

The International Fire Safety Consortium led development of an amazing resource many don't know about: a wildfire webinar series produced in coordination with @ULFSRI. 15 weeks worth of lectures are posted covering the field. A great resource! buff.ly/4cHYGun

@GuillermoRein Very nice to meet you here. Hope you have a great trip in Hong Kong😀

We encounter wildfire even as tourists on top of Victoria Peak in Hong Kong!

Operations for our @UCBerkeley led experiment: Material Ignition and Spread Test (MIST) have begun onboard the @ISS_CASIS! We are testing the flammability of materials in microgravity with @NASAglenn. Read more about our experiments: www1.grc.nasa.gov/space/iss-rese… @UCBspacecenter

@GuillermoRein Thanks😁

@shaorun Congratulations Shaorun! 👏🏼

Thanks everyone for making this achievement possible.

Students and I had a fun day filming for an upcoming television series on wildfires in the lab today. Smoke, embers, and fire whirls! (sorry I didn’t snag a photo of the whirl this time!)

I’m glad to present my latest work on smouldering fires at the poster session at #FBF2024. Please come and discuss with me if you are interested! @IAWF @Xinyan_Huang @Yizhou_Li_PolyU

Can you imagine that the firebrands can accelerate the smoldering spread during a peatland fire despite the construction of the firebreak (or canal)? See our latest paper published in IJWF (doi.org/10.1071/WF23116). @gollnerfire @Xinyan_Huang @IAWF @BerkeleyME
