Impacts of different biomass burning emission inventories: Simulations of atmospheric CO2 concentrations based on GEOS-Chem

Mengqian Su et al.

Summary: Biomass burning has significant variability in space and time, impacting global CO2 distributions and variances. Quantifying the effects of biomass burning emissions on atmospheric CO2 concentrations is crucial for carbon cycles and budgets. This study used numerical experiments to estimate the impacts of four biomass burning emission inventories on CO2 concentration simulations, highlighting similarities and differences in emissions and simulated CO2 concentrations at global and regional scales.

Spatial and Temporal Variations of Atmospheric CH4 in Monsoon Asia Detected by Satellite Observations of GOSAT and TROPOMI

Hao Song et al.

Summary: This study mapped the spatial and temporal distribution of atmospheric CH4 concentrations over monsoon Asia using GOSAT and TROPOMI satellite observations. The results showed a long-term increase in CH4 concentrations with an annual growth rate of approximately 8.4 ppb. The spatial and temporal trends of CH4 variations were significantly correlated with anthropogenic CH4 emissions. The study also revealed the differences in CH4 concentrations and emissions among different urban agglomerations.

Large CO2 Emitters as Seen From Satellite: Comparison to a Gridded Global Emission Inventory

Frederic Chevallier et al.

Summary: Using NASA's OCO satellites, we have retrieved large-scale fossil fuel CO2 emissions globally and compared them with a global inventory. The OCO emission retrievals explain more than one third of the inventory variance and show consistent variations in emission levels across different time scales. This suggests that the retrieval-inventory differences are mostly random and trends can be calculated reliably in areas with favorable observing conditions.

Tropical methane emissions explain large fraction of recent changes in global atmospheric methane growth rate

Liang Feng et al.

Summary: This study reveals that tropical terrestrial emissions contribute significantly to global methane increases. The researchers also found strong seasonal correlations between changes in sea surface temperature and methane emissions in tropical South America and tropical Africa.

Reassessment of carbon emissions from fires and a new estimate of net carbon uptake in Russian forests in 2001-2021

Aleksey A. Romanov et al.

Summary: This study examines the impact of differences in fire control management of Russian forests on fire-related carbon emissions. The researchers found that the areas affected by fire varied between different fire protection zones, with a significant portion of the burnt area being in forests controlled by fire-fighting aircraft or areas without protection. These findings highlight the importance of including the so-called control zone in estimating the Russian forest carbon balance. Implementing forest management strategies in remote areas could help decrease forest loss and carbon emissions.

Accuracy comparison and driving factor analysis of LULC changes using multi-source time-series remote sensing data in a coastal area

Qi-Hui Zheng et al.

Summary: The study aims to evaluate the accuracy of different land use and land cover (LULC) products in the coastal area of Tianjin city. Results show that GLC_FCS30-2020 has the highest classification accuracy, but all products have lower verification accuracies than official announcements. High accuracy is observed for agricultural land, impervious surface, and water bodies, while forest, grassland, and shrubs have lower accuracy. Land cover changes in Tianjin from 2010 to 2020 indicate a decrease in agricultural land and an increase in construction land, driven by rapid population growth, economic development, and policy guidance.

The role of fire in global forest loss dynamics

Dave van Wees et al.

Summary: Fires play a central role in regulating forests and understanding their impact on forest loss is crucial for global carbon cycle. On average, 38% of global forest loss is associated with fire, with variations in different regions and significant trends in tropical forest areas like the Amazon and Indonesia.

High-resolution and multi-year estimation of emissions from open biomass burning in Northeast China during 2001-2017

Yusheng Shi et al.

Summary: The study presented emissions data of open biomass burning in Northeast China from 2001 to 2017, with crop residue burning contributing the most to the total emissions. Heilongjiang Province was the largest emitter of CO2, with forest fires and grassland fires also influencing CO2 emissions. Emissions showed significant interannual variability, peaking in 2003 and 2008.
