Description
Bin Li and co-authors build, in a 2024 study, a sharper inventory of pollution from open burning of farm and forest waste in Heilongjiang Province, China. Such burning is a major source of air pollutants. Older inventories suffered from coarse burned-area maps and ill-fitting emission factors.
The team merged satellite burned-area data at 250-meter detail with local biomass figures and tuned emission factors. The result covers eleven pollutants across twenty years, from 2001 to 2020. Heilongjiang is a key farming and forestry region, so its smoke matters regionally. A finer inventory helps officials target burning rules where smoke truly concentrates. It also improves the inputs that air quality models depend on.
