“…In Southeast Asia, Thailand (51.75%), followed by Timor Leste (48.75%) and the Philippines (44.99%) had the highest percentage of fires in croplands due to rice, maize and sugarcane agricultural residue burning 27,61,62 , whereas Malaysia (62.65%), Cambodia (61.94%), Brunei (58.37%) and Myanmar (57.82%) had the highest percentage of fires in forests mainly due to slash and burn agriculture, and timber harvesting. Brunei also had the highest percent of fires in grassland/sparsely vegetated category, whereas, Laos (37.88%), Myanmar (25.95%), Vietnam (25.33%) and the Philippines (23.58%) had the highest percentage of fires in the shrublands category.…”

We assessed the fire trends from Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) (2003–2016) and Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) (2012–2016) in South/Southeast Asia (S/SEA) at a country level and vegetation types. We also quantified the fire frequencies, anomalies and climate drivers. MODIS data suggested India, Pakistan, Indonesia and Myanmar as having the most fires. Also, the VIIRS-detected fires were higher than MODIS (AQUA and TERRA) by a factor of 7 and 5 in S/SEA. Thirty percent of S/SEA had recurrent fires with the most in Laos, Cambodia, Thailand, and Myanmar. Statistically-significant increasing fire trends were found for India (p = 0.004), Cambodia (p = 0.001), and Vietnam (p = 0.050) whereas Timor Leste (p = 0.004) had a decreasing trend. An increasing trend in fire radiative power (FRP) were found for Cambodia (p = 0.005), India (0.039), and Pakistan (0.06) and declining trend in Afghanistan (0.041). Fire trends from VIIRS were not significant due to limited duration of data. In S/SEA, fires in croplands were equally frequent as in forests, with increasing fires in India, Pakistan, and Vietnam. Specific to climate drivers, precipitation could explain more variations in fires than the temperature with stronger correlations in Southeast Asia than South Asia. Our results on fire statistics including spatial geography, variations, frequencies, anomalies, trends, and climate drivers can be useful for fire management in S/SEA countries.

Therefore, lab results are only used in some special cases, where little or no field data are available and where the lab data appear representative based on their MCE, e.g., Christian et al (2003).…”

<p><strong>Abstract.</strong> Since the publication of the compilation of biomass burning emission factors by Andreae and Merlet (2001), a large number of studies has greatly expanded the amount of available data on emissions from various types of biomass burning. Using essentially the same methodology as Andreae and Merlet (2001), this paper presents an updated compilation of emission factors. The data from over 350 published studies were critically evaluated and integrated into a consistent format. Several new categories of biomass burning have been added, and the number of species for which emission data are presented has been increased from 93 to 121. Where field data are still insufficient, estimates based on appropriate extrapolation techniques are proposed. Based on these emission factors and published global activity estimates, I have derived estimates of pyrogenic emissions for important species emitted by the various types of biomass burning.</p>

“…In spite of the fact that this paper is based on data from over 370 publications, rather than the 130 papers that formed the basis for A&M2001, Table 1 shows that there are still many species for which there are little or no field data available. For example, there are still no field measurements of the emission factors for the alkyl amines, which have recently become implicated in aerosol nucleation and new particle formation (Smith et al, 2010;Almeida et al, 2013;Kürten et al, 2014). In view of the importance of the number concentrations of aerosol particles (CN), especially cloud condensation nuclei (CCN), for climate change, it is unfortunate that there have only been a few additional measurements of their emission factors in the last two decades.…”

Since the publication of the compilation of biomass burning emission factors by Andreae and Merlet (2001), a large number of studies have greatly expanded the amount of available data on emissions from various types of biomass burning. Using essentially the same methodology as Andreae and Merlet (2001), this paper presents an updated compilation of emission factors. The data from over 370 published studies were critically evaluated and integrated into a consistent format. Several new categories of biomass burning were added, and the number of species for which emission data are presented was increased from 93 to 121. Where field data are still insufficient, estimates based on appropriate extrapolation techniques are proposed. For key species, the updated emission factors are compared with previously published values. Based on these emission factors and published global activity estimates, I have derived estimates of pyrogenic emissions for important species released by the various types of biomass burning.
