本研究的目的是评估在空气质量预报系统中集成耦合火-大气模型的可行性，以创建一个旨在模拟野火烟雾的多尺度空气质量建模框架。在本研究中，将一个火-大气耦合模式WRF-SFIRE与AIRPACT空气质量模拟系统进行了单向集成。WRF-SFIRE解决了当地气象、火灾增长、火柱上升和烟雾扩散问题，并为AIRPACT提供了火灾输入。wrf - sfire预测的火灾区域和明确解决的垂直烟雾分布取代了AIRPACT使用的参数化蓝天火灾输入。WRF-SFIRE/AIRPACT集成框架在两次单独的野火事件（2015年Cougar Creek火灾和2016年Pioneer火灾）中成功进行了测试。WRF-SFIRE模拟的执行时间为
The objective of this study was to assess feasibility of integrating a coupled fire-atmosphere model within an air-quality forecast system to create a multiscale air-quality modeling framework designed to simulate wildfire smoke. For this study, a coupled fire-atmosphere model, WRF-SFIRE, was integrated, one-way, with the AIRPACT air-quality modeling system. WRF-SFIRE resolved local meteorology, fire growth, the fire plume rise, and smoke dispersion, and provided AIRPACT with fire inputs. The WRF-SFIRE-forecasted fire area and the explicitly resolved vertical smoke distribution replaced the parameterized BlueSky fire inputs used by AIRPACT. The WRF-SFIRE/AIRPACT integrated framework was successfully tested for two separate wildfire events (2015 Cougar Creek and 2016 Pioneer fires). The execution time for the WRF-SFIRE simulations was
