Research of transport ways of smoke aerosol from forest fires based on satellite information and simulation

This article analyzes the data of spatial distribution of aerosol in the vertical column of atmosphere, measured by lidar CALIOP. It is established that the transfer of smoke aerosol in the region was carried out above the surface layer at altitudes from 2 to 5 km above sea level in June 2016. Forward and backward trajectories of air masses are constructed with HYSPLIT model for identifying of smoke aerosols transfer during forest fires (June-July 2016) near Lake Baikal and Ulan-Ude. The results of trajectories calculation have shown that influence of local seats offire on quality of the atmosphere in Ulan-Ude was observed in June at the general northwest drift of a smoke aerosol, in July downwind was mainly from the Krasnoyarsk and the Yamalo-Nenets regions.
