Abstract:<p>Roughly half of global fire emissions originate from savannas, and emission factors (EF) are used to quantify the amount of trace gases and aerosols emitted per unit dry matter burned. It is well known that these EFs vary substantially even within a single biome but so far quantifying their dynamics has been hampered by a lack of EF measurements. Therefore, global emission inventories currently use a static averaged EF for the entire savanna biome. To increase the spatiotemporal coverage of EF… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
