Daily surface concentration of fire related PM2.5 for 2003-2025, modelled by SILAM CTM when using the MODIS satellite data for the fire radiative power

Fine particles from wildfires are one important source for PM2.5. These small aerosol particles are risk to health and cause a large number of premature deaths world-wide. Using the MODIS satellite data we estimate the fine particulate matter emissions from wildfires and model they dispersion in atmosphere using the System for Integrated modeLling of Atmospheric coMposition (SILAM) chemistry transport model. The surface concentration of fire-originated PM2.5 (including SOA formation from fires) is here evaluated for years 2003-2025 and the corresponding daily mean data is provided both in global scale, in 0.2 degree resolution, and also in European scale in 0.1 degree resolution. Additionally, the total global PM2.5-column from fires is provided at 0.5 degree resolution.
