When considering where and to what extent prescribed fire should be applied, land resource managers must consider a host of concerns including biomass density, moisture content, and meteorological conditions. These variables will not only affect how effective the burn will be, but also what sort of smoke is produced by the prescribed fire and how that smoke impacts individuals and local communities. After briefly summarizing how prescribed fire practices have evolved, this review describes how the properties of prescribed fire smoke depend on prescribed fire conditions and the methods used to measure molecular and particulate species in prescribed fire smoke. The closing section of this review identifies areas where advances in smoke monitoring and characterization can continue to improve our understanding of prescribed fire behavior. Keywords: prescribed fire; wildfire; smoke; particulate matter; emission factor; measurement; modified combustion efficiency; carbon budget. Major findings: Prescribed fire is a vital strategy for managing forests and reducing wildfire danger by clearing away excess plants through low-intensity, controlled burns that produce significantly less harmful smoke than major wildfires. This review highlights how using high-tech monitoring tools to track specific chemicals like CO2 and particulate matter helps experts protect community air quality while making local ecosystems more resilient to future disasters." assertion.
