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
CO 2 emissions from forest loss
G. R. van der Werf,Douglas C. Morton,Ruth DeFries,J. G. J. Olivier,Prasad S. Kasibhatla,Robert B. Jackson,G. J. Collatz,James T. Randerson +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the second largest anthropogenic source of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere, after fossil fuel combustion, is revised downwards, but tropical peatlands emerge as a notable carbon dioxide source.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The Global Fire Emissions Database (GFED) as mentioned in this paper has been used to quantify global fire emissions patterns during 1997-2016, with the largest impact on emissions in temperate North America, Central America, Europe, and temperate Asia.
