Fire and grazing differentially affect aerial biomass and species composition in Andean grasslands
(Gauthier-Villars/Editions Elsevier, 2011-04)
Grazing and fire have been the most common disturbances in many grasslands ecosystems for many centuries. However, some mountain regions are currently experiencing a decrease in land use, and therefore in frequency or ...
Biomass fire consumption and carbon release rates of rainforest-clearing experiments conducted in northern Mato Grosso, Brazil
(2001-08-27)
Biomass consumption and carbon release rates during the process of forest clearing by fire in five test plots are presented and discussed. The experiments were conducted at the Caiabi Farm near the town of Alta Floresta, ...

Influence of sugarcane burning on indoor/outdoor PAH air pollution in Brazil
(Elsevier B.V., 2012-10-01)
This work presents the influence of sugarcane burning on PAM levels and their profiles at a residence located in Araraquara (SP, Brazil), a city surrounded by sugarcane plantations. The average concentrations of total PAHs ...

Study of combustion of different biomass and its atmospheric emissions
(2015)
One of the energy alternatives that provide utility, flexibility, cleanliness and economy is biomass, such as forest waste (wood) and agricultural (sugarcane bagasse, rice husks, coffee pods, etc.). However, with its ...
Genotoxicity and composition of particulate matter from biomass burning in the eastern Brazilian Amazon region
(ACADEMIC PRESS INC ELSEVIER SCIENCE, 2011)
In the present study Tradescantia pallida micronucleus (Trad-MCN) bioassay was used to assess the genotoxicity of particulate matter with a mass median aerodynamic diameter less than 10 pm (PM(10)) in Tangara da Serra (MT), ...
Climatic control of the biomass-burning decline in the Americas after ad 1500
(2012)
The significance and cause of the decline in biomass burning across the Americas after ad 1500 is a topic of considerable debate. We synthesized charcoal
records (a proxy for biomass burning) from the Americas and from ...
