Short summary
Emissions from controlled shrubland fires in northern Spain were analysed to assess how vegetation type affects smoke composition. Fires in Calluna shrubs produced higher amounts of most gases and fine particles, while Genista fires released relatively more nitrogen-related gases and hydrogen fluoride. Smoke particles were mainly carbon-based and often showed rounded shapes. These results improve emission estimates for assessing air quality and climate impacts of Mediterranean fires.
