=== 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).

'''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).

=== Data issues ===

:Sorry to revisit the old FLAMBE issues, but we are seeing some strange results in the fire emissions, and I am trying to verify with Ed Hyer that we are processing the data correctly.
 
:To get a handle on how we are processing the file, I have been looking in Philippe's directory <tt>~phs/IDL/dvpt/flambe/</tt>
 
:I took a look at some of the data files in the data/ directory in there. In the column that corresponds to carbon emissions (column 11, or 10 in IDL accounting), I see values that range from 4.95e4 to 765e4. Hyer tells me that in his version of the files, these range from 4.95 to 7650 (i.e. 4 orders of magnitude different). We are assuming these emissions are in g/m2, which they clearly aren't at our values.
 
:Do either of you know if I am looking at old files, and if what we have looks more like what he has? Or are we processing things 4 orders of magnitude too large?? Or, are we assuming a different unit on the emissions when we actually process them? I can't seem to find raw flambe data files anywhere besides Philippe's development directory...
 
'''''[mailto:plesager@seas.harvard.edu Philippe Le Sager] wrote:'''''
 
:We had a couple of problems with the data. The one that gave me headache was the difference between forecast and analysis data, which can be mixed in some files. There was the issue of double counting fires seen by both GOES and MODIS, and we found a problem with unit.  It was Kg instead of g as advertised in the ppt [that was given to us] (the only documentation for the data).  Ed did correct the files and back processed the data on its server.
 
:I have a "new" directory in my test data. You probably look at the old set of data. The new one is in the "new" subdirectory:

=== Obtaining the FLAMBE data ===


==== Raw data ====
--[[User:Melissa Payer|Melissa Sulprizio]] 10:21, 18 February 2015 (EST)
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.
The [[QFED_biomass_burning_emissions|QFED biomass burning emission inventory]] has been added to [[GEOS-Chem v10-01]] via the [[HEMCO|HEMCO emissions component]]. This inventory may be used to replace [[GFED4 biomass burning emissions|GFED4]] for research purposes.
;wrap_flambe.pro: IDL batch file which acts as a driver for looping over all 24 hours of FLAMBE data for a given date.
;read_flambe.pro: IDL program which reads each FLAMBE "raw" data file and saves it to [http://acmg.seas.harvard.edu/gamap/doc/Chapter_6.html#6.2 GEOS-Chem bpch format].


==== Processed data ====
--[[User:Melissa Payer|Melissa Sulprizio]] ([[User talk:Melissa Payer|talk]]) 18:27, 14 September 2016 (UTC)
The processed FLAMBE data (for input to GEOS-Chem) are kept on the Harvard data archive in the directories:


ftp ftp.as.harvard.edu
== GFAS ==
cd /pub/geos-chem/NRT-ARCTAS/flambe/YYYY/MM


where <tt>YYYY/MM</tt> are the year and month of the data. Currently we have the full data archive from 2008 and 2009, with some months of 2010.
The [[GFAS biomass burning emissions|GFAS biomass burning emission inventory]] was added in [[GEOS-Chem 12#12.2.0|GEOS-Chem 12.2.0]] via the [[HEMCO|HEMCO emissions component]]. This inventory may be used to replace [[GFED4 biomass burning emissions|GFED4]] for research purposes.

== Duncan et al "Seasonal" Biomass Emissions ==
== FIRECAM tool ==


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.

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.

--Bob Yantosca (talk) 19:18, 2 January 2019 (UTC)

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.

--Melissa Sulprizio (talk) 12:19, 4 October 2018 (UTC)

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.
