Under the nuclear winter scenario, large wildland fires are expected to contribute to a general smoke plume and are considered potential analogues for the behavior of gigantic palls. As a means of testing the reasonableness of current estimates of a wildland fire contribution,…

That the capacity of global models to predict the future can be well tested by their capacity to reconstruct past events is generally agreed, as is the definition of normal winter as the numerical equivalent of >5x103 degree-days (with the degrees in Fahrenheit). One-…

A study of the relation of daily levels of air pollution and mortality in New York City for the ten year period 1963-1972 has recently been completed. This study, which will be published shortly, confirms our preliminary finding reported at the June 1974 Denver meeting of the…

The rate of rise of the convection columns above experimental fires depends on the rate of average atmospheric temperature lapse in the lower 1,000 meters. The type of fuels used in these fires will probably produce a mass fire if the burning area is 27 plus or minus 2 hectares…

Losses to the atmosphere of our nutrient elements, phosphorus (P), potassium (K), calcium (Ca), and magnesium (Mg), caused by slash burning a logged-over mixed forest coupe in the Florentine Valley in Tasmania, were estimated by weighing and sampling the slash on marked plots…

Smoke from raging fires produced in the aftermath of a major nuclear exchange has been predicted to cause large decreases in surface temperatures. However, the extent of the decrease and even the sign of the temperature change depend on how the smoke is distributed with altitude…

Pollutants sampled during the burning of 30 lb ponderosa pine fuel beds yielded emission factors for CO, hydrocarbon gases, and particulate matter of 146, 8.4, and 9.1 lb/ton of fuel, respectively. When similar beds were treated with diammonium phosphate flame retardant, these…

Prescribed fires are used on about 155,000 acres of land each year in the Pacific Northwest states of Oregon and Washington. Particulate matter emission factors can be altered by selecting optimal burning conditions to improve combustion efficiency. This paper reports on the…
