Recent data suggest that global wildfire emissions vary substantially from year to year.
The enhancement ratios relative to CO were variable in the plumes sampled due to variations in wildfire emissions and removal processes during transport.
This long-range transport of boreal wildfire emissions resulted in large enhancements of CO, BC, NO y, and NO x (Val Martín et al. 2006).
In terms of carbon, North and Hurteau [5] observed reductions in fire severity and wildfire emissions in stands where 18 33% of aboveground carbon was removed during treatments completed 5 years before wildfire.
Such a wide range of estimates for ecosystem carbon balance in Alaska has resulted, in part, from large uncertainties in region-wide wildfire emissions of carbon, which have been reported over a range of 14 81 Tg C year−1 (Table 1).
Stand-scale studies, empirical and modeled, describe a wide range of total treatment costs (12 116 Mg C ha−1) and reductions in wildfire emissions between treated and untreated stands (1 40 Mg C ha−1).
Mineral soil losses (and surface organic layer carbon emission totals from combustion) did not include the emission from combustion of aboveground forest biomass, which, based on average area-based carbon losses reported by Tan et al. [26] of 2.23 kg C m−2, would have added 8.7 Tg C in Alaska wildfire emissions in 2015.
Wildfire emissions contain fine particulate matter which can cause cardiovascular and respiratory problems.
Previously, prevailing scientific theory held that most particles in the stratosphere came from volcanoes, but smoke and other wildfire emissions have been detected from the lower stratosphere.
However, health implications of the exposure to wildfire emissions are less well understood (Naeher et al. 2007).
