Key Points Regional climate via PBL dynamics was estimated using measurements of surface energy exchange and mixed‐layer model in interior Alaska Regional cooling and moistening were estimated due to fire‐induced land cover change from a mature forest to postfire young forest Albedo and increased evapotranspiration caused the regional cooling and moistening effects
