Fuel consumption and performance results of four mechanical harvesting systems were determined in burned and unburned sugarcane in Florida. Harvester fuel consumption per gross tonne of cane averaged 112% higher in unburned cnae than in burned cane. More important, cane recovery…

The high variablility of burning conditions and fuels, found in Alaskan forest fires, produces an associated complex emission of particulate matter. Histological evidence of some large particles has been found in the forest fire plumes as well as aerosols resulting apparently…

Wild and prescribed fires currently burn about 20,100 ha per year in Washington west of the Cascade Crest: prehistoric wildfires burned an estimated 19,200 ha per year. Modern burning consumes 38 g/m²/yr of fuel; the estimated prehistoric rate was 35 g/m²/yr over a 50-percent…
