Dr. Nancy French’s (MTRI) research is featured in a @nytimes story about the smoke event that impacted much of the U.S. on Tuesday from extensive western U.S. fires and an outbreak of smaller fires in Ontario, Canada. @mturesearch https://t.co/paORZidtqo

[The New York Times @nytimes]

Smoke from wildfires burning in the western U.S. and Canada stretched across the continent, covering eastern skies in a thick haze.

See how it traveled thousands of miles.
