Global Inventory of Gas Geochemistry Data from Fossil Fuel, Microbial and Burning Sources, version 2017

Global combustion: the connection between fossil fuel and biomass burning emissions (1997-2010).

Humans use combustion for heating and cooking, managing lands, and, more recently, for fuelling the industrial economy. As a shift to fossil-fuel-based energy occurs, we expect that anthropogenic biomass burning in open landscapes will decline as it becomes less fundamental to energy acquisition and livelihoods. Using global data on both fossil fuel and biomass burning emissions, we tested this...

Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Fossil Fuel Fired Power Generation Systems

Inventory of new microbial taxa from Iran

Microorganisms constitute more than half of the Earth's biomass and in addition to quantity,they represent great diversity. In January 2013, the number of officially registered names forprokaryotic microorganisms at the genus and species levels were, respectively, approximately2100 and 12000. Current authorized methods for classification and identification of newmicrobial taxa are polyphasic ap...

Historical emissions of carbonaceous aerosols from biomass and fossil fuel burning for the period 18702000

[1] Historical changes of black carbon (BC) and particulate organic matter (POM) emissions from biomass burning (BB) and fossil fuel (FF) burning are estimated from 1870 to 2000. A bottom-up inventory for open vegetation (OV) burning is scaled by a top-down estimate for the year 2000. Monthly and interannual variations are derived over the time period from 1979 to 2000 based on the TOMS satelli...

Microbial Biotechnology 2020; microbiology of fossil fuel resources

This roadmap examines the future of microbiology research and technology in fossil fuel energy recovery. Globally, the human population will be reliant on fossil fuels for energy and chemical feedstocks for at least the medium term. Microbiology is already important in many areas relevant to both upstream and downstream activities in the oil industry. However, the discipline has struggled for r...
