Water Chemistry, Quality and Fires
New! The Camp Fire (2018)
Monitoring water quality after wildfires
(Katherine BOURZAC, C&EN; November 28, 2018)
Having run across a recent article today from the Modesto Bee concerning water quality concerns brought about by the Rim Fire in California; my interest was piqued as to how fires, whether prescribed or wild, affect water chemistry and quality. Below, I have provided the aforementioned newspaper article, as well as four research articles on this rather intriguing subject. All are as follows:
