The global methane (CH 4) budget is becoming an increasingly important component for
managing realistic pathways to mitigate climate change. This relevance, due to a shorter …

Methane is an important greenhouse gas, responsible for about 20% of the warming
induced by long-lived greenhouse gases since pre-industrial times. By reacting with …

Abstract We present the Fire Inventory from National Center for Atmospheric Research
(NCAR) version 2.5 (FINNv2. 5), a fire emissions inventory that provides publicly available …

This chapter addresses the biogeochemical cycles of carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4),
and nitrous oxide (N2O). The three greenhouse gases have increased in the atmosphere …

We describe the fourth generation of the Global Fire Emissions Database (GFED4) burned
area data set, which provides global monthly burned area at 0.25° spatial resolution from …

Aerosols from biomass burning (BB) emissions are poorly constrained in global and
regional models, resulting in a high level of uncertainty in understanding their impacts. In …

The Fire INventory from NCAR version 1.0 (FINNv1) provides daily, 1 km resolution, global
estimates of the trace gas and particle emissions from open burning of biomass, which …

New burned area datasets and top-down constraints from atmospheric concentration
measurements of pyrogenic gases have decreased the large uncertainty in fire emissions …

In several biomes, including croplands, wooded savannas, and tropical forests, many small
fires occur each year that are well below the detection limit of the current generation of …

Open biomass burning (OBB) plays an important role in air pollution and climate change by
releasing short-term but intensive amounts of particulate matter and gaseous air pollutants …
