Thermal analysis of wildfires and effects on global ecosystem cycling

Biomass combustion plays an important role in the earth's biogeochemical cycling. The monitoring of wildfires and their associated variables at global scales is feasible and can lead to predictions of the influence of combustion on biogeochemical cycling and tropospheric…

Management of prescribed burns in fen and sedge meadow wetlands

Wetlands dominated by flora of the Gramineae and Cyperaceae, such as fens and sedge meadows, have been shown to be fire dependent or fire related in their natural history as well as their community composition and structure. Prescribed burning is therefore a useful and often…

The effects of fire on biogenic soil emissions of nitric oxide and nitrous oxide

Measurements of biogenic soil emissions of nitric oxide (NO) and nitrous oxide (N2O) before and after a controlled burn conducted in a chaparral ecosystem on June 22, 1987, showed significantly enhanced emissions of both gases after the burn. Mean NO emissions from heavily…

Particulate emissions from a mid-latitude prescribed chapparal fire

Smoke aerosol was collected on filters from a helicopter during a 400-acre (1.62 km2) prescribed chaparral burn in the San Dimas Experimental Forest on December 12, 1986. Hi-Vol samplers were used to collect particles on both Teflon and glass fiber filters. Scanning electron…

Trace gas emissions from a mid-latitude prescribed chaparral fire

Gas samples were collected in smoke plumes over the San Dimas Experimental Forest during a 400-acre prescribed chaparral fire on December 12, 1986. A helicopter was used to collect gas samples over areas of vigorous flaming combustion and over areas of mixed stages (vigorous/…

Enhanced biogenic emissions of nitric oxide and nitrous oxide following surface biomass burning

Recent measurements indicate significantly enhanced biogenic soil emissions of both nitric oxide (NO) and nitrous oxide (N2O) following surface burning. These enhanced fluxes persisted for at least 6 months following the burn. Simultaneous measurements indicate enhanced levels…

Fire and ecosystem dynamics in eastern Canadian Pinus banksiana forests

[Annotation copied from Lynham et al. 2002(https://www.frames.gov/rcs/18000/18093.html)] Jack pine (Pinus banksiana) is an economically important Canadian tree species and its autecology is inextricably linked to fire. It would disappear as a natural component of the boreal…
