Journal ArticleDOI
Intraseasonal variability of greenhouse gas emission factors from biomass burning in the Brazilian Cerrado
Roland Vernooij,Marcos Giongo,Marco Assis Borges,Máximo Menezes Costa,Ana Carolina Sena Barradas,Guido R. van der Werf +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a sampling system mounted on an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) to sample biomass burning smoke in the Estacao Ecologica Serra Geral do Tocantins in the Brazilian state of Bahia and found that the N 2 O EF for the open Cerrado was less than half the EF suggested by literature compilations for savannas.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biomass burning combustion efficiency observed from space using measurements of CO and NO2 by the TROPOspheric Monitoring Instrument (TROPOMI)
Ivar R. van der Velde,Ivar R. van der Velde,Guido R. van der Werf,Sander Houweling,Sander Houweling,Henk Eskes,J. Pepijn Veefkind,J. Pepijn Veefkind,Tobias Borsdorff,Ilse Aben,Ilse Aben +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, a new analysis of biomass burning pollutants using space-borne data to investigate the spatiotemporal profitability of fire combustion is presented, where the authors find spatial and temporal patterns in the ΔXNO2 ∕ ΔXCO ratio that point to distinct differences in biomass burning behavior.
Journal ArticleDOI
Satellite evidence of substantial rain-induced soil emissions of ammonia across the Sahel
Jonathan E. Hickman,Jonathan E. Hickman,Enrico Dammers,Corinne Galy-Lacaux,Guido R. van der Werf +4 more
TL;DR: In this article, satellite retrievals of atmospheric NH3 using the Infrared Atmospheric Sounding Interferometer (IASI) were used to reveal substantial precipitation-induced pulses of NH3 across the Sahel at the onset of the rainy season in 2008.
Journal ArticleDOI
Future increases in lightning ignition efficiency and wildfire occurrence expected from drier fuels in boreal forest ecosystems of western North America
Thomas Hessilt,John T. Abatzoglou,Yan Chen,James T. Randerson,Rebecca C. Scholten,Guido R. van der Werf,Sander Veraverbeke +6 more
TL;DR: The authors investigated the influence of lightning properties, landscape characteristics, and fire weather on lightning ignition efficiency in Alaska, United States of America, and Northwest Territories, Canada, between 2001 and 2018.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fire Research: Linking Past, Present, and Future Data
Natalie Kehrwald,Cathy Whitlock,Carlo Barbante,Carlo Barbante,Victor Brovkin,Anne-Laure Daniau,Jed O. Kaplan,Jennifer R. Marlon,Mitchell J. Power,Kirsten Thonicke,Guido R. van der Werf +10 more
TL;DR: In the past 40 years, increasing levels of burning in the United States, Australia, North America, Europe, and Russia have resulted in billions of dollars in property damage, loss of life, and threats to human and ecological health as mentioned in this paper.
