Particulate Matter (PM2.5) data measured from prescribed burns at Eglin Air Force Base, Florida 03/11/2023 - 03/20/2023

Atmospheric particulate matter less than or equal to 2.5 micrometers (PM2.5, units of micrograms/m3) was measured at three prescribed (Rx) burns at Eglin Air Force Base in March 2023. PM2.5 was measured by two Environmental Beta Attenuation Monitors (EBAM) at each burn (serial numbers C17410 and C17416). The EBAMs are manufactured by Met One Instruments. The burns units were: G25W (3/11/2023), G25E (3/16/2023), and G20 (3/20/2023). Hourly PM2.5 data were recorded, and in some cases (when concentrations were high), 15-min running mean data were recorded.This dataset is part of the Wildland Fire Science Initiative (WFSI) research burn campaign held at Eglin Air Force Base from 3-11-2023 to 3-19-2023. In addition, pre- and post-fire data collection occurred before and after these dates.
