Biomass burning emissions estimated with a global fire assimilation system based on observed fire radiative power
The Global Fire Assimilation System (GFASv1.0) calculates biomass burning emissions by assimilating Fire Radiative Power (FRP) observations from the MODIS instruments onboard the Terra and Aqua satellites. It corrects for gaps in the observations, which are mostly due to cloud cover, and filters spurious FRP observations of volcanoes, gas flares and other industrial activity. The combustion rat...

متن کاملGlobal Near-Real-Time Estimates of Biomass Burning Emissions using Satellite Active Fire Detections
We present a new technique for generating daily global estimates of biomass burning emissions suitable for use in models forecasting atmospheric chemical composition and air quality. We combine ecosystem-dependent carbon fuel databases, fire weather severity estimates, and near-real-time satellite fire detections from the MODIS instruments to estimate the amount of carbon released from active f...
متن کاملGlobal top-down smoke-aerosol emissions estimation using satellite fire radiative power measurements
Fire emissions estimates have long been based on bottom-up approaches that are not only complex, but also fraught with compounding uncertainties. We present the development of a global gridded (1◦ × 1◦) emission coefficients (Ce) product for smoke total particulate matter (TPM) based on a top-down approach using coincident measurements of fire radiative power (FRP) and aerosol optical thickness...
