Show moreNASA's Earth Venture suborbital (EVS-2) ATom dataset provides a unique opportunity to investigate the global distributions of the biomass burning (BB) tracers HCN and CH3CN during four different seasons spanning 2016 through 2018. Here we assess the distributions of these BB tracers in the remote troposphere during the first two ATom deployments, and compare to CAM-chem, a global chemical model, using two different BB emissions inventories.
