Simulated Fine Particulate Matter (PM2.5) Estimates over Alaska, 2001-2015

The dataset provides simulated PM2.5 concentration estimates over Alaska, U.S. PM2.5 (particulate matter with diameter <= 2.5 microns) concentrations in air (micrograms m-3) are gridded at 0.1-degree resolution for May to September for the years 2001 through 2015. The data were created in a modeling process utilizing the Wildland Fire Emissions Inventory System (WFEIS), the Arctic-Boreal Vulnerability Experiment (ABoVE) Wildfire Date of Burning (WDoB) dataset, and multiple models including the Hybrid Single-Particle Lagrangian Integrated Trajectory (HYSPLIT) model. The data are provided in GeoTIFF format.
