Landscape fires are substantial sources of (greenhouse) gases and aerosols. Fires in savanna landscapes represent more than half of global fire carbon emissions. Quantifying emissions from fires relies on accurate burned area, fuel load and burning e

Seasonal skew of tropical savanna fires

Autor: Tom Eames, Jeremy Russell-smith, Cameron Yates, Roland Vernooij, Guido van der Werf

Tropical savannas and grasslands are the most frequently burned biome in the world, and fire constitutes an important part of the ecosystem. In this ecosystem it can have both rejuvenating and destructive effects, depending on several factors includi

Landscape fires, predominantly in the frequently burning global savannas, are a substantial source of greenhouse gases and aerosols. The impact of these fires on atmospheric composition is partially determined by the chemical breakup of the elements

Savanna fires occurring in sub-Saharan Africa account for over 60% of global fire extent, of which more than half occurs in the Southern Hemisphere contributing ~29% of global fire emissions. Building on experience in reducing savanna fire emissions

The savannas of tropical northern Australia, covering 1.9M km2, are relatively unmodified and support a very sparse human population (0.5 person/km2). Largely marginalised and impoverished Indigenous communities are key stakeholders in the region wit
