Soil smoldering in temperate forests: a neglected contributor to fire carbon emissions revealed by atmospheric mixing ratios by L. Vallet, L. Vallet, C. Abdallah, T. Lauvaux, L. Joly, M. Ramonet, P. Ciais, M. Lopez, I. Xueref-Remy, F. Mouillot

“…Fires represent 1.97 % (<span class="inline-formula">±0.89</span>) of the country's annual carbon footprint, corresponding to a reduction of 30 % in the forest carbon sink this year. Consequently, we conclude that current European fire emission estimates should be revised to account for soil combustion in temperate forests. …”
