(2) The IDL program ~bmy/IDL/regrid_bioburn.pro was used to convert the original raw biomass burning files into binary punch files. (3) Bryan Duncan and Amanda Staudt processed the raw data files (which are kept by Bob Yantosca), excluding the 2001 interannual biomass data. (4) Rokjin Park and Fok-Yan Leung have created the 2001 interannual data file.

(2003) with emission factors above for 6 different surface vegetation types provided by Rose Yevich. The IDL programs used to create these files were: ~bmy/IDL/regrid/make_emission_vw_aerosols.pro -- Creates biomass files ~bmy/IDL/regrid/biosplit.pro -- Splits files created by make_emission_vw_aerosols.pro into separate files, one per each species
