=== GFED3 monthly data ===
The [[GFED4 biomass burning emissions|GFED4 biomass burning emission inventory]] is now the current default biomass burning dataset for GEOS-Chem (introduced in [[GEOS-Chem v10-01|v10-01]], June 2015).  The current GFED4 archive contains data from 1997 through 2016.


GFED3 is availalble for use in [[GEOS-Chem v9-01-02]] and higher versions.  Prasad Kasibhatla and the GEOS-Chem Support Team implemented GFED3 into [[GEOS-Chem v9-01-02]].
GFED4 has since superseded the obsolete [[GFED3 biomass burning emissions|GFED3]] and [[GFED2 biomass burning emissions|GFED2]] inventories.


For more information about the GFED3 data set, please see the following:

==== GFED3 in GEOS-Chem v10-01 and newer versions ====
 
In [[GEOS-Chem v10-01]] and newer versions, the GFED3 emissions of SO2 are read with the [[HEMCO|HEMCO emissions component]].  We have created [http://ftp.as.harvard.edu/gcgrid/data/ExtData/HEMCO/GFED3/v2014-10/README new GFED3 data files] (in [http://ferret.wrc.noaa.gov/noaa_coop/coop_cdf_profile.html COARDS-compliant netCDF format]) for use with HEMCO.  These new data files are contained in the [[HEMCO data directories|HEMCO data directory tree]].  For detailed instructions on how to download these data files to your disk server, please see our [[HEMCO_data_directories#Downloading_the_HEMCO_data_directories|''Downloading the HEMCO data directories'' wiki post]].
 
==== GFED3 in GEOS-Chem versions prior to v10-01 ====
 
GFED3 data is available from 1997-2011.  In GEOS-Chem v9-02 and older versions, the GFED3 data files are stored in binary punch format at this directory tree:

=== GFED3 daily and 3-hourly emissions ===
 
==== Original implementation ====
 
'''''This update was tested in the 1-month benchmark simulation [[GEOS-Chem v9-01-03 benchmark history#v9-01-03l|v9-01-03l]] and approved on 18 May 2012.'''''

:I have updated GEOS-Chem to incorporate the capabilty to use GFED3 daily and 3-hourly fire fractions, and to regrid on the fly from the GFED3 native resolution (0.5x0.5) to the model resolution.
 
:NOTES:
 
:*Daily and 3hourly fractions are only available for 2003-2010. For methodology, see
::: Mu, M., J.T. Randerson, G.R. van der Werf, L. Giglio, P. Kasibhatla, D. Morton, G.J. Collatz, R.S. DeFries, E.J. Hyer, E.M. Prins, D.W.T. Griffith, D. Wunch, G.C. Toon, V. Sherlock, and P.O. Wennberg. 2011. ''Daily and 3-hourly variability in global fire emissions and consequences for atmospheric model predictions of carbon monoxide''. <u>Journal of Geophysical Research-Atmospheres</u>. '''116''': D24303. doi:10.1029/2011JD016245.
:*Since fire fraction are not available as a function of type of fire type (as is the case for dry matter burnt), the same fractions are applied to all 6 fire types (ag waste, deforestation, extratropical forest, peat, savanna, and woodland).
:*I took the opportunity to rewrite <tt>gfed3_biomass_mod.F</tt> which mainly involved cleaning up code but with one big change - regridding directly from the GFED3 native resolution to the model resolution by adapting the MAP_A2A regriddng package mentioned in Bob's Model Engineer [[GEOS-Chem_Newsletter_Winter_2012#Other_development_tasks|Report]].
:*As a result of the change to the regridding, the GFED3 data file archive has to be updated to bpch files at the native resolution. I have these ready and will supply to [[GEOS-Chem Support Team|GC support team]]. Note that these require the creation of new directory structure since they do not belong in the <tt>GEOS_1x1</tt> data directory.
:*GFED3 for 2011 is likely to be available in late spring-early summer. An added data layer for fire emissions that may be missed by the burnt area algorithm is currently being developed.
:*There are occasional cells where the burnt dry matter seems to unrealistically high. For example in Dec 2009, the cell centered at 13.25 degree lat, 123.75 degree lon has DM = 13054 g DM/m<sup>2</sup>/month. The next highest grid box that month is about 723 g DM/m<sup>2</sup>/month. The GFED team is aware of this and is investigating.

==== Bug fix for 3-hourly GFED3 emissions ====

Running with 3-hourly emissions from the first day of a month seems to work fine, but trying to start on any other day appears to cause a problem. This didn't happen when running with daily emissions and I think it might have to do with how the monthly and 3-hourly emissions are coupled.
 
'''''[mailto:ckeller@seas.harvard.edu Christoph Keller] wrote:'''''
 
:I think I know what's going on. Since the same 3-hourly fractions are used throughout the entire month, the fractions are only read once per month.
 
:To construct the 3-hourly filename, the <tt>YYYYMMDD</tt> string is used (In gfed3_biomass_mod.F, line 670), which is hardcoded to have the day set to 1 (this happens on line 542). However, the <tt>TAU0</tt> value that is passed to <tt>READ_BPCH2_GFED3</tt> is constructed using the current day (<tt>DD</tt>), which can differ from 1 (<tt>DD</tt> is defined on line 505, the corresponding <tt>TAU0</tt> on line 668).

=== Implementation in GEOS-Chem ===
Jenny Fisher (U. Wollongong) and Min Huang (JPL) are working with Christine Wiedinmyer to implement FINNv1 into the standard version of GEOS-Chem. This implementation will include a number of features, many of which are improvements over the non-standard implementations currently used (see below):
#Improved speciation for GEOS-Chem, including specialty simulations like SOA
#Compatibility with new emissions module (including use of netcdf, high-resolution inputs, online regridding, etc.)
#GFED-like online computation of emissions for most species based on emissions of a single species for each land type (significantly reducing file storage requirements)
#Ability to use daily or monthly emissions
 
If you have questions or suggestions, please contact Jenny Fisher (jennyf@uow.edu.au) and Min Huang (Min.Huang@jpl.nasa.gov).
--[[User:Bmy|Bob Y.]] 10:54, 13 May 2014 (EDT)
 
'''UPDATE (July 2014)'''
 
A new version of FINNv1 emissions has been implemented in GEOS-Chem v9-02 and is currently being incorporated into HEMCO for inclusion into v10-01. The new implementation starts from CO2 emissions (gridded to high resolution from original FINN files) for 6 different land types. CO2 emissions are converted to emissions of other gas phase and aerosol species using emission ratios provided by Christine Wiedinmyer. Emissions of non-methane organic compounds are derived from a single NMOC species (also computed from ratios to CO2) using speciation factors (also provided by Christine Wiedinmyer). These calculations are performed online in GEOS-Chem, then summed over land types and regridded to model resolution. FINN can be used with daily or monthly resolution, and emissions will be available with a lag of approximately 6 months behind real time (in special cases, near-real-time emissions can also be provided).
 
This implementation includes support for many species, including those used in specialised GEOS-Chem simulations. Some of these species are not currently emitted in publicly available releases of GEOS-Chem, and interested users will be responsible for adding relevant emissions-related code (i.e. defining IDBs, etc.). No changes to the FINN code itself should be necessary to use these species. The current list of FINN species includes:
#Species currently emitted by biomass burning in standard versions for full chemistry and/or specialty simulations ''(no code changes necessary)'': CO2, CO, CH4, NO, SO2, OC, BC, NH3, ACET, ALD2, ALK4, BENZ, C2H2, C2H4, C2H6, C3H8, CH2BR2, CH2O, CH3BR, GLYC, GLYX, HAC, MEK, MGLY, PRPE, TOLU, XYLE
#Species either not currently emitted or emitted but not by biomass burning in standard versions ''(code changes necessary)'': ACTA, CH3CN, CH3I, DMS, EOH, HCN, HCOOH, HNO2, ISOP, MACR, MNO3, MOH, MVK, R4N2, RCHO, LIMO, MTPA, MTPO
#Species currently lumped online in the FINN code: ETBENZ (with TOLU), STYR (with TOLU), TMB (with XYLE), APINE (with MTPA), BPINE (with MTPA), CARENE (with MTPA)
#Species/groupings that don't currently exist but that are defined in FINN inputs for possible implementation by interested users: AROM, FUR, ROH, RCOOH, SESQ
 
For the original lumping of VOCs into GEOS-Chem species, see [http://wiki.seas.harvard.edu/geos-chem/images/FINN_final_lumping.pdf FINN_final_lumping.pdf]
 
Potential future updates include more detailed treatment of terpenes and of secondary species like PAN. If you have an interest in working on emissions of these species, please contact me (jennyf@uow.edu.au) and/or Christine (christin@ucar.edu).
 
--Jenny Fisher, 4 June 2014
 
=== Current non-standard implementations ===
As of IGC6 (May 2013), FINNv1 has been implemented in non-standard versions of GEOS-Chem by at least 3 groups. These implementations allow users to use the ASCII emissions files (or a converted gridded netcdf equivalent) available directly from http://bai.acd.ucar.edu/Data/fire/. If you are interested in working with FINNv1 emissions immediately, please contact Jingqiu Mao (Jingqiu.Mao@noaa.gov), Min Huang (Min.Huang@jpl.nasa.gov), or Jenny Fisher (jennyf@uow.edu.au).

=== Obtaining the FLAMBE data ===


==== Raw data ====

The FLAMBE biomass burning data files are available at the following archive: http://www.nrlmry.navy.mil/aerosol_web/arctas_flambe/data_hourly/.


[[User:Bmy|Bob Yantosca]] has some scripts that can be used to download the data (contact him for more info).  These are:
== QFED ==


;sleepFlambe: Perl script which issues a [[Downloading GEOS-Chem source code and data#Using wget to download files|Unix <tt>wget</tt>]] command to download one day (24 hourly files) of FLAMBE data to disk.

See ''Bey et al'' [2001].
I developed the [https://globalfires.earthengine.app/view/firecam FIRECAM tool] for end-users to quickly compare fire emissions estimates from five global inventories (GFEDv4s, GFASv1.2, FINNv1.5, QFEDv2.5r1, and FEERv1.0-G1.2) for a given study region. Currently, FIRECAM supports six species: CO2, CO, CH4, OC, BC, and PM2.5. FIRECAM compares the five inventories at an aggregated 0.5deg x 0.5deg spatial resolution for the 2003-2018 time period. Please see the [https://sites.google.com/view/firecam/home FIRECAM website] and [https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rse.2019.111557 our paper] for more information. The paper describes the methodological differences among these inventories and metrics we developed to diagnose spatial biases and uncertainties. We recommend end-users to use multiple inventories in model runs, if possible. As we show in our paper, the choice of emissions inventory can significantly impact model results. If this is not feasible, please take the time to see how much emissions estimates vary in your study region using the FIRECAM tool.

Latest revision as of 20:41, 13 July 2023

This page describes the options for biomass burning emissions in GEOS-Chem.

GFED4

The GFED4 biomass burning emission inventory is now the current default biomass burning dataset for GEOS-Chem (introduced in v10-01, June 2015). The current GFED4 archive contains data from 1997 through 2016.

GFED4 has since superseded the obsolete GFED3 and GFED2 inventories.

FINNv1

The FINNv1 biomass burning emission inventory has been added to GEOS-Chem v10-01 via the HEMCO emissions component. This inventory may be used to replace GFED4 for research purposes.

--Melissa Sulprizio 10:21, 18 February 2015 (EST)

QFED

The QFED biomass burning emission inventory has been added to GEOS-Chem v10-01 via the HEMCO emissions component. This inventory may be used to replace GFED4 for research purposes.

--Melissa Sulprizio (talk) 18:27, 14 September 2016 (UTC)

GFAS

The GFAS biomass burning emission inventory was added in GEOS-Chem 12.2.0 via the HEMCO emissions component. This inventory may be used to replace GFED4 for research purposes.

FIRECAM tool

I developed the FIRECAM tool for end-users to quickly compare fire emissions estimates from five global inventories (GFEDv4s, GFASv1.2, FINNv1.5, QFEDv2.5r1, and FEERv1.0-G1.2) for a given study region. Currently, FIRECAM supports six species: CO2, CO, CH4, OC, BC, and PM2.5. FIRECAM compares the five inventories at an aggregated 0.5deg x 0.5deg spatial resolution for the 2003-2018 time period. Please see the FIRECAM website and our paper for more information. The paper describes the methodological differences among these inventories and metrics we developed to diagnose spatial biases and uncertainties. We recommend end-users to use multiple inventories in model runs, if possible. As we show in our paper, the choice of emissions inventory can significantly impact model results. If this is not feasible, please take the time to see how much emissions estimates vary in your study region using the FIRECAM tool.
