Journal ArticleDOI
Nepal Ambient Monitoring and Source Testing Experiment (NAMaSTE): emissions of particulate matter from wood- and dung-fueled cooking fires, garbage and crop residue burning, brick kilns, and other sources
Thilina Jayarathne,Chelsea E. Stockwell,Prakash V. Bhave,P. S. Praveen,Chathurika M. Rathnayake,Md. Robiul Islam,Arnico K. Panday,Sagar Adhikari,Rashmi Maharjan,J. Douglas Goetz,Peter F. DeCarlo,Eri Saikawa,Robert J. Yokelson,Elizabeth A. Stone +13 more
TL;DR: In this article, fuel-based emission factors (EFs; with units of pollutant mass emitted per kilogram of fuel combusted) were determined for fine particulate matter (PM2.5), organic carbon (OC), elemental carbon (EC), inorganic ions, trace metals, and organic species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Complex Effects Arising in Smoke Plume Simulations due to Inclusion of Direct Emissions of Oxygenated Organic Species from Biomass Combustion
Sherri A. Mason,Richard J. Field,Robert J. Yokelson,Michael A. Kochivar,Mark R. Tinsley,Darold E. Ward,Wei Min Hao +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of oxygenated volatile organic species (oxygenates), including HCOOH, H 2 CO, CH 3 OH, HOCH 2 CHO (hydroxyacetaldehyde), CH 3 COOH and C 6 H 5 OH, have been investigated using Fourier transform infrared measurements of biomass combustion smoke plumes.
Journal ArticleDOI
An analysis of the chemical processes in the smoke plume from a savanna fire
Jörg Trentmann,Robert J. Yokelson,Peter V. Hobbs,T. Winterrath,T. J. Christian,Meinrat O. Andreae,Sherri A. Mason +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an investigation of field measurements obtained in a smoke plume from a prescribed savanna fire during the SAFARI 2000 field experiment using a detailed photochemical box-dilution model.
Journal ArticleDOI
The tropical forest and fire emissions experiment: Trace gases emitted by smoldering logs and dung from deforestation and pasture fires in Brazil
Ted J. Christian,Robert J. Yokelson,João Andrade de Carvalho,David W. T. Griffith,Ernesto Alvarado,J.C. Santos,Turibio Gomes Soares Neto,Carlos Alberto Gurgel Veras,Wei Min Hao +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, a mobile, Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FTIR) measured the unlofted emissions of 17 trace gases from residual smoldering combustion (RSC) of logs as part of the Tropical Forest and Fire Emissions Experiment (TROFFEE) during the 2004 Amazonian dry season.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aerosol single scattering albedo dependence on biomass combustion efficiency: Laboratory and field studies
Shang Liu,Allison C. Aiken,Caleb Arata,Manvendra K. Dubey,Chelsea E. Stockwell,Robert J. Yokelson,Elizabeth A. Stone,Thilina Jayarathne,Allen L. Robinson,Paul J. DeMott,Sonia M. Kreidenweis +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, single scattering albedo (ω) of fresh biomass burning (BB) aerosols produced from 92 controlled laboratory combustion experiments of 20 different woods and grasses was analyzed to determine the factors that control the variability in ω.
