Survey of Fires in Southeast Asia and India During 1987,

Abstract

As part of the Global Emission Inventory Activity (GElA) of the International Global Atmospheric Chemistry (IGAC) Project, we have conducted a survey of the spatial and temporal distribution of biomass burning in India and Southeast Asia during 1987. This survey was conducted using nighttime images from the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP) Operational Linescan System (OLS) available in analog (film) format at the National Snow and Ice Data Center at the University of Colorado.
