Burn intensity drives the alteration of phenolic lignin to (Poly) aromatic hydrocarbons as revealed by pyrolysis gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (Py-GC/MS)
High-intensity wildfires alter the chemical composition of organic matter, which is expected
to be distinctly different from low-intensity prescribed fires. Herein, we used pyrolysis gas …
