چکیده
This paper is concerned with presenting methods to study transport and lifetime of both gases and particles originating from biomass burning. It is beyond doubt that biomass burning has a detrimental impact on air quality on both the smaller and larger scale, and studying the fate of biomass burning plumes can provide useful insights within this area of research. As pointed out by the authors, biomass burning constitutes a substantial source of both trace gases and aerosol particles to the atmosphere.

The paper presents important results on how much fires during dry periods can contribute to gas and particle pollution due to long range transport, and hence to the impact on human health and regional climate change. The paper is presented in an easy understandable fashion with a clear line of argument. The authors present a novel empirical method to indirectly infer the fire contribution in an...

The paper propose a new methodology to quantify the contributions from wild fires along the path of backtrajectories. The authors use this and measurements on 3 different stations to understand how the aerosol ages, what and how much is emitted of different pollutants among other things. The method, however, is poorly explained or debated and gave me doubts if it is really correct or not. Engli...

The manuscript describes some impacts of eastern European biomass burning on some ambient air monitoring stations located in Finland in the spring and summer of 2006. The paper follows the familiar model of monitoring and interpretive analysis. In my opinion, however, there is a difference between monitoring, monitoring with valueadded analysis, and research. I believe ACP should be an outlet f...
