摘要

Planned forest fires can save lives and millions of dollars in property by reducing the amount of bio-mass that is available for wildfires. Yet these prescribed fires emit significant amounts of air pollutants. What would happen if the managed fires occurred during different seasons? New research published in ES&T (pp 2767-2772) examines this question in relation to data gathered in Georgia, where forests cover more than 66% of the state's total land. The researchers conclude that new changes in forest management practices can reduce the pollution levels from prescribed forest fires, including from smoldering ash. For example, fires in the spring and winter have a greater impact on fine particulatematter (PM_(2.5)) levels than equivalent fires in the summer and fall. However, ozone levels rise because of smoke from forest fires that occur during the spring and summer, they find.
