=== 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.


[[GEOS-Chem v9-01-02]] and higher versions will contain the new GFED3 biomass inventory. For more information about this data set, please see the following:
GFED4 has since superseded the obsolete [[GFED3 biomass burning emissions|GFED3]] and [[GFED2 biomass burning emissions|GFED2]] inventories.

:NOTES:
== FIRECAM tool ==


:*Daily and 3hourly fractions are only available for 2003-2010. For methodology, see
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.

:*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 ====
 
'''''NOTE: This bug fix is slated for inclusion in [[GEOS-Chem v9-02]].'''''
 
'''''[mailto:skoplitz@fas.harvard.edu Shannon Koplitz] wrote:'''''
 
:I think there might be a bug in gfed3_biomass_mod.F when trying to run with 3-hourly GFED 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). So <tt>TAU0</tt> does not match the time stamp in the 3-hourly file if the starting day differs from the first of the month, and you get the error in <tt>READ_BPCH2_GFED3</tt> that you observe.
 
:If you hardcode <tt>DD</tt> to 1 in <tt>GET_TAU0</tt> on line 668 I would expect that the error disappears. So just use

=== Update GFED3 emissions to 2011 ===
 
'''''[mailto:psk9@duke.edu Prasad Kasibhatla] wrote:'''''
 
:I have updated the GFED3 database to include data for 2011.  Please note that GPCP precip data (one of the input datasets needed for GFED3) was not available for all of 2011 - the ERA-Iterim precip (http://climatedataguide.ucar.edu/reanalysis/era-interim) was therefore used for the second half of 2011.
 
:There were also small isolated changes prior to 2011 in this version of GFED3. I have therefore reprocessed the entire 1997-2011 GFED3 dataset for GEOS-Chem, now stored in at Harvard in the:

You will need to make a small modification in routine GFED2_COMPUTE_BIOMASS (in <tt>gfed2_biomass_mod.f</tt>) in order to update the maximum available year of data.  Look for the lines:
 
      ! Availability of MONTHLY data
      !-------------------------------
      ELSE IF ( LGFED2BB ) THEN
       
        CALL GFED2_AVAILABLE( YYYY, 1997, 2007 )
 
and change the 2007 to 2008:
 
      ! Availability of MONTHLY data
      !-------------------------------
      ELSE IF ( LGFED2BB ) THEN
       
        !-----------------------------------------------------------
        ! Prior to 7/8/09:

== FLAMBE biomass emissions ==
 
''NOTE: At this time FLAMBE has not been implemented into the mainline standard GEOS-Chem, but it has been used for the NRT-ARCTAS codes.  Therefore probably only a small fraction of GEOS-Chem users will be concerned with these emissions at this time.''
 
=== Data issues ===
 
'''''[mailto:jafisher@fas.harvard.edu Jenny Fisher] wrote:'''''
 
: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 ====
The FLAMBE biomass burning data files are available at the following archive: http://www.nrlmry.navy.mil/aerosol_web/arctas_flambe/data_hourly/.
 
[mailto:yantosca@seas.harvard.edu Bob Yantosca] has some scripts that can be used to download the data (contact him for more info).  These are:
 
;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.
;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 ====
The processed FLAMBE data (for input to GEOS-Chem) are kept on the Harvard data archive in the directories:
 
ftp ftp.as.harvard.edu
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.

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.
