Figure 7.2
Global biomass burning photographs plotted by date and latitude. Top: seasonality in biomass burning is evident in many parts of the world as identified by Andreae (1993), as of May, 1992. (Reconstructed from original data following Andreae, 1993.) Bottom: data for biomass burning photographs collected between 1992-1998. Shaded swath marked by fewer data points in the equatorial zone is discussed in the text. The swath moves across the equatorial zone in step with the seasonal shift of the ITC. The circled data points are also discussed in text.
