Black carbon lofts wildfire smoke high into the stratosphere to form a persistent plume
Open accessAbstract
Up in smoke: Extensive and intense wildfires in the Pacific Northwest of the United States in 2017 injected large quantities of smoke into the stratosphere. Yu et al. used satellite observations and modeling to characterize the history and chemistry of that smoke. The smoke rose to altitudes between 12 and 23 kilometers within 2 months owing to solar heating of black carbon. The smoke then remained in the stratosphere for more than 8 months. Photochemical loss of organic carbon resulted in a smoke lifetime 40% shorter than expected. Science , this issue p. 587

The paper’s Abstract reports that smoke from the 2017 wildfires remained detectable in the stratosphere for more than eight months, supporting the duration claim. It describes transport and latitudinal spread, but the passages found do not establish that the smoke traveled around the world. (LLM, conf=0.84)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredRecent catastrophic forest fires in Canada in 2017 and Australia in 2019 and 2020 produced 0.3-1 Tg of smoke (0.006-0.02 Tg soot), which was subsequently heated by sunlight and lofted high in the stratosphere.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
