Journal ArticleDOI
Global fire emissions and the contribution of deforestation, savanna, forest, agricultural, and peat fires (1997-2009)
G. R. van der Werf,James T. Randerson,Louis Giglio,Louis Giglio,G. J. Collatz,Mingquan Mu,Prasad S. Kasibhatla,Douglas C. Morton,Ruth DeFries,Yufang Jin,T. T. van Leeuwen +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a revised version of the Carnegie-Ames-Stanford-Approach (CASA) biogeochemical model and improved satellite-derived estimates of area burned, fire activity, and plant productivity to calculate fire emissions for the 1997-2009 period on a 0.5° spatial resolution with a monthly time step.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interannual variability in global biomass burning emissions from 1997 to 2004
G. R. van der Werf,James T. Randerson,Louis Giglio,G. J. Collatz,Prasad S. Kasibhatla,Avelino F. Arellano,Avelino F. Arellano +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated fire emissions during the 8 year period from 1997 to 2004 using satellite data and the CASA biogeochemical model, and found that on average approximately 58 Pg C year −1 was fixed by plants as NPP, and approximately 95% of this was returned back to the atmosphere via R h.
Journal ArticleDOI
An Enhanced Contextual Fire Detection Algorithm for MODIS
TL;DR: An improved replacement detection algorithm is presented that offers increased sensitivity to smaller, cooler fires as well as a significantly lower false alarm rate.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The proposed MODIS standard products for land applications are described along with the current plans for data quality assessment and product validation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of daily, monthly, and annual burned area using the fourth‐generation global fire emissions database (GFED4)
TL;DR: The Global Fire Emissions Database (GFED4) as discussed by the authors provides global monthly burned area at 0.25°m spatial resolution from mid-1995 through the present and daily burned area for the time series extending back to August 2000.
