Gaseous and particulate emissions from prescribed burning in Georgia

From the text ... 'Prescribed burning is a significant source of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) in the southeastern United States. However, limited data exist on the emission characteristics from this source. Various organic and inorganic compounds both in the gas and particle…

Fire Emissions from Scotch Pine Forest in Central Siberia

Boreal forest in Siberia contains approximately one-fourth of the world's terrestrial biomass. It is essential to quantify the amount of trace gases, especially carbon-containing compounds, emitted from biomass burning in Siberia in order to understand its contribution to the…

Trace gases and particulate matter emissions from wildfires and agricultural burning in northeastern Mexico during the 2000 fire season

An inventory of air pollutants emitted from forest and agricultural fires in Northeastern Mexico for the period of January to August of 2000 is presented. The emissions estimates were calculated using an emissions factor methodology. The…

Seasonal patterns in biomass burning emissions from southern African vegetation fires for the year 2000

A modeling framework has been developed to examine the spatial and temporal aspects of biomass burning emissions from southern African savanna fires. The complexity of the fire emissions processes is described using a spatially and temporally explicit model that integrates…

Wildfires in eastern Texas in August and September 2000: emissions, aircraft measurements, and impact on photochemistry

The accuracy of wildfire air pollutant emission estimates was assessed by comparing observations of carbon monoxide (CO) and particulate matter (PM) concentrations in wildfire plumes to predictions of CO and PM concentrations, based on emission estimates and air quality models.…
