- Increase understanding of how wildland fire management techniques, such as reducing or eliminating ignitions or prescribed burning for reducing fuel, can reduce black carbon emissions and the magnitude of these effects in order to support development of management strategies (AMAP 2021).
- Incorporate satellite monitoring and mapping of fires to monitor black carbon emissions (AMAP 2021, Paunu et al. 2023).
- A comprehensive assessment of the potential co-benefits and risks of this approach is needed.

- Include Arctic Indigenous and local communities in co-production of wildland fire management strategies.
- Include Arctic Indigenous and local communities in co-production of wildland fire management strategies.
- Include Arctic Indigenous and local communities in co-production of wildland fire management strategies.
- Public engagement, education, and town halls about all aspects of the approach need to be developed and implemented in parallel with research in order to determine whether this approach can be implemented.
- Follow core engagement principles identified by the Stratospheric Controlled Perturbation Experiment (SCoPEx) advisory committee (Jinnah et al. 2024):
- Start engagement efforts as early as possible
- Include social scientists with engagement expertise on research teams during the research design process
- Don’t presuppose what communities will be concerned about
- Develop a plan to be responsive to community concern
