New fire diurnal cycle characterizations to improve fire radiative energy assessments made from MODIS observations
Accurate near real time fire emissions estimates are required for air quality forecasts. To date, most approaches are based on satellite-derived estimates of fire radiative power (FRP), which can be converted to fire radiative energy (FRE) which is directly related to fire emissions. Uncertainties i...
