+ They tried to understand the formation of this extreme air pollution episode and to analyze its evolution over time. Several datasets were used for this study, such as : * **Active Fires from Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS)**, embarked on NASA’s Suomi-NPP satellite. One of VIIRS's main missions is to monitor fires from space. Indeed, With its spatial resolution of 375m and swath width of ~3000 km, VIIRS can detect small fires worldwide. Suomi-NPP passes twice a day at 01:30 a.m. (nighttime) and 01:30 p.m. (daytime). Daytime and nighttime VIIRS data were used here to locate the fires near in the IGP region, from October to November 2023.
