Over the past decade, concern over potential global warming has focused attention on the emission of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, and there is an active debate concerning the desirability of reducing emissions. At the heart of this debate is the future path of both…

Keywords: carbon emissions, climate change

Teams of scientific and policy experts identified and evaluated the technical, economic and implementation aspects of mitigation activities, and identified research and data gaps. Agriculture and forestry mitigation alternatives to reduce or offset GHG emissions are appealing…

Keywords: vegetation fires

Smoke produced by vegetation fires consists of a complex mixture of gaseous, liquid, and solid phases. Many particulates are generated during vegetation fires. Crutzen and Andreae (1990) have estimated that global emissions of pyrogenic smoke particles (50-150 Tg yr-l) may…

We apply our Snow, Ice, and Aerosol Radiative (SNICAR) model, coupled to a general circulation model with prognostic carbon aerosol transport, to improve understanding of climate forcing and response from black carbon (BC) in snow. Building on two previous studies, we account…
