The embedded map above highlights a series of images of high nitrogen dioxide (NO2) levels from the Franklin Fire in Malibu and from the Los Angeles region on December 10, 2024. High nitrogen dioxide emissions (in shades of dark red and purple) occur during wildfires but are also emitted by fossil fuel-burning vehicles, high rise buildings, and food processing facilities. The images were captured by the Tropospheric Emissions: Monitoring of Pollution (TEMPO) instrument aboard the Intelsat-40e (IS-40e) platform.
Press the blue "Play" button in the lower left corner of the map to view an animation of NO2 emissions from the Franklin Fire in Malibu, west of Los Angeles, and NO2 emissions from the Los Angeles region from 7:50 a.m. to 11:50 a.m. PT (15:50 to 19:50 UTC) on December 10, 2024, in hourly increments.
The embedded map above is a series of images showing smoke from the Franklin Fire in Malibu. The NO2 emissions coincide with the emanating smoke from the wildfire. These GeoColor images were captured by the Advanced Baseline Imager (ABI) instrument aboard the GOES-West (currently GOES-18) platform.
Press the blue "Play" button in the lower left corner to view an animation of the fire from 7:50 a.m. to 11:50 a.m. PT (15:50 to 19:50 UTC) on December 10, 2024, in ten-minute increments. Click the icon in the upper right corner to interactively explore this fire in NASA Worldview.
