Monitoring smoke particulate concentrations from prescribed burns and wildland fires is becoming increasingly important. Because prescribed burns are more prevalent, the impact of their smoke on communities is more significant. In addition, the number and intensity of wildland fires are increasing, especially in the West, causing Federal, State, county, and local officials to issue more frequent and more detailed smoke advisories and health warnings. Laboratory tests were conducted in the Rocky Mountain Research Station's Fire Sciences Laboratory (FSL) in Missoula, MT. The real-time and FRM samplers were on a platform 55 feet above the floor of the laboratory's burn chamber. Smoke was generated by burning small piles of pine needles near the floor. Fans mixed the smoke in the chamber.
