From introduction: The Greater Yellowstone Area (GYA) fires of 1988 were, in the words of National Park Service (NPS) publications, the most significant ecological event in the history of the national parks (NPS 1988). Their political consequences may be as far-reaching as their…

Airborne measurements of thirteen trace gases from seven forest fires in North America are used to determine their average emission factors. The emission factors are then used to estimate the contributions of biomass burning to the worldwide fluxes of these gases. The estimate…

The expanding use of prescribed fire to achieve North American land management objectives has led, in recent years, to the increased use of helicopter-ignition, large-scale controlled burns. These mass-ignition convection burns often generate extremely intense and erratic fire…

Low-level helicopter flights were used to collect samples of smoke from burning chaparral in southern California and over a boreal forest fire in norther Ontario, Canada. The smoke plume samples were analyzed for carbon dioxide (CO2), carbon monoxide (CO), hydrogen (H2), methane…
