Abstract
Biomass burning is the second largest global source of anthropogenic aerosols, and South America is one of the major source regions. In the dry season, the atmosphere of the Amazon basin features a remarkable haze, with layers containing high loadings of smoke. Aerosols with different degrees of ageing, are encountered in the boundary layer and the free troposphere. The South American Biomass Burning Analysis (SAMBBA) was an intensive observation campaign in September-October 2012 that involved measurements of the Amazonian atmosphere using the Facility for Airborne Measurements (FAAM) BAe-146 research aircraft.
