Short summary
In August 2025, over 200 fires burned the northwest of the Iberian Peninsula and released over one million tonnes of carbon monoxide. We used satellite measurements over 15 of those wildfires , covering 70 % of the area burned, to estimate emissions of carbon monoxide and smoke composition. Satellite-based estimates were about three times higher than common fire-emission datasets, highlighting the value and complexity of tracking major wildfires from space and the limits of current inventories.
