  "term": "Acetonitrile",
  "field": "Meteorology and atmospheric science",
  "definition": "An organic compound with the chemical formula CH3CN, present in the atmosphere primarily as a tracer for biomass burning. It is released during the combustion of organic matter and has a relatively long atmospheric lifetime, allowing for its transport over large regions. Acetonitrile concentrations are often used to estimate the impact of wildfires on air quality.",
