The aerosol optical thickness (AOT), aerosol index (AI), carbon monoxide (CO) and pyrogenic events variations over Bratsk from September 20 to October 5 2011 were studied on remote data (NOAA, Terra, Aqua, Aura). It is shown that maximum values of AOT and CO concentration are strongly exceeding undisturbed values.
Keywords: forest fires, aerosol, aerosol index, carbon monoxide, satellite observation
