Abstract

The article presents a study which explores the Fire INventory from NCAR version 1.0 (FINNv1) which provides global estimates of trace gases and emissions from open burning of biomass. It is inferred that the global emission estimates of the FINNv1 have been developed for modeling atmospheric chemistry and air quality. Several compounds calculate in FINNv1 are highlighted which include carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides and formaldehyde.
