Characterization of particulate products of biomass combustion

Biomass burning, one of the most important global sources of particulate matter, produces both airborne particles that may influence global and regional climate, and particles incorporated into sediments that provide records of past local, regional, and global impacts of biomass…

Fire, nutrients and atmospheric influences in longleaf pine woodlands [abstract]

Fire is an important ecological factor influencing the structure and function of longleaf pine ecosystems, including forest floor and groundcover nutrient pools and availability, forest to atmosphere interactions, and potential nutrient controls on productivity. However, little…

Nitric oxide emissions from agricultural soils in temperate and tropical climates: sources, controls and mitigation options

Global annual NO emissions from soil are of the order of 10 Tg NO-N. This is about half the amount fossil fuel combustion processes contribute to the annual global NOx budget. Reducing the emissions of soil derived NOx requires an understanding of the source of the flux and the…
