TLDR
In this article, the authors report a study of the gaseous emissions from Indian forest fires from 2005 to 2016 and their potential impact on radiative forcing in terms of the amount of forest burned area is quantified.
Abstract
This paper reports a study of the gaseous emissions from Indian forest fires from 2005 to 2016 and their potential impact on radiative forcing. Initially, forest burned area is quantified u...

An inventory of gaseous and primary aerosol emissions in Asia in the year 2000 : NASA global tropospheric experiment transport and chemical evolution over the pacific (TRACE-P): Measurements and analysis (TRACEP1)

TL;DR: In this paper, an inventory of air pollutant emissions in Asia in the year 2000 is developed to support atmospheric modeling and analysis of observations taken during the TRACE-P experiment funded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and the ACE-Asia experiment, in which emissions are estimated for all major anthropogenic sources, including biomass burning, in 64 regions of Asia.

Gross primary productivity in areas of different land cover in the western Brazilian Amazon

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the Surface Energy Balance Algorithm for Land (SBEAL) to estimate gross primary productivity (GPP) in a region of the western Brazilian Amazon using Landsat 8 OLI/TIRS images, and evaluated possible changes in estimated productivity among areas of different land use and in different seasonal conditions.

Fire regime in Southern Brazil driven by atmospheric variation and vegetation cover

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated the variations in the occurrence of fire in Southern Region of Brazil caused by the seasonal characteristics of the years and highlighted the vegetation coverings most affected by fires within each year assessed and among the different ENSO events.

Quantification of organic carbon and black carbon emissions, distribution, and carbon variation in diverse vegetative ecosystems across India.

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors derived a vegetation burning-based inventory of BC and organic carbon aerosols over India at a resolution of 250 m × 250 m using a consumed biomass technique, and estimated emissions based on updated emission factor estimates.

Better Bootstrap Confidence Intervals

TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider the problem of setting approximate confidence intervals for a single parameter θ in a multiparameter family, and propose a method to automatically incorporate transformations, bias corrections, and so on.
