Major aspects of the circulation through the atmostpheric environment of a number of gaseous nitrogen pollutants have been estimated, including source magnitudes, residual atmospheric concentrations,and scavenging processes. The compounds considered include the major nitrogen…

Previous studies of the effects of heating on soil hydrophobicity have been conducted under free availability of oxygen. Under fire, however, soils may be deprived of oxygen due to its consumption at the heat source and inadequate replenishment in the soil. In the present study…

Above-ground biomass (live + dead), was estimated pre- and post-burn in eight types of savanna ecosystem in Roraima, in the extreme northern part of the Brazilian Amazon. The objective was to investigate the stock of pre-burn above-ground carbon and its fate after experimental…

The classification of savanna fires into headfire and backfire types can in theory help in assessing pollutant emissions to the atmosphere via relative apportionment of the amounts of smouldering and flaming combustion occurring, and is also important when assessing a fire's…

This technical report examines different future scenarios for sequestering carbon and reducing emissions of methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) from U.S. forestry and agriculture. Net greenhouse gas mitigation estimates in response to carbon price assumptions are presented for…

The production of residual white ash patches within wildfires represents near-complete combustion of the available fuel and releases a considerable quantity of gases to the atmosphere. These patches are generally produced from combustion of large downed woody debris (LDWD) such…

There were large interannual variations in burned area in the boreal region (ranging between 3.0 and 23.6x106 ha yr-1) for the period of 1992 and 1995-2003 which resulted in corresponding variations in total carbon and carbon monoxide emissions. We estimated a range of carbon…

From introduction: Wildfire is a majoar natural disaster in the United States. In 2002, for example, tens of thousands of wildfires occurred that consumed nearly seven million acres of forest and other land cover (NIFC, 2003). Wildfires contribute to increasing atmospheric CO2…
