In the following video series, we explore the physics and prediction of pyro-convective plumes and subsequent pyro-clouds that occur during extreme wildfire events. We start with the physics and environment of pyro-convective plumes (videos 1 to 3). To enable the prediction of pyro-convection, we introduce the skew-T, demonstrating how to interpret it with real-world case studies and where to access it (videos 4 to 7). Finally, the series shifts focus to actual measurements of pyro-convection using soundings (Video 8), introducing the concept of conserved variables needed to interpret sounding data (Video 9), and concluding with an analysis of actual pyro-convection observations (Video 10).
