abstract = "The state of S{\~a}o Paulo is the largest sugarcane producer in
Brazil, with a cultivated area of about 5.4Mha in 2011.
Approximately 2Mha were harvested annually from 2006 to 2011 with
the pre-harvest straw burning practice, which emits trace gases
and particulate material to the atmosphere. The development of
emission inventories for sugarcane straw burning is crucial in
order to assess its environmental impacts. This study aimed to
estimate annual emissions associated with the pre-harvest
sugarcane burning practice in the state of S{\~a}o Paulo based on
remote sensing maps and emission and combustion factors for
sugarcane straw burning. Average estimated emissions (Gg/year)
were 1130±152 for CO, 26±4 for NOx, 16±2 for CH4, 45±6 for PM2.5,
120±16 for PM10 and 154±21 for NMHC (non-methane hydrocarbons). An
intercomparison among annual emissions from this study and annual
emissions from four other different approaches indicated that the
estimates obtained by satellite fire detection or low spatial
resolution approaches tend to underestimate sugarcane burned area,
due to unique characteristics of this type of biomass fire.
Overall, our results also indicated that government actions to
reduce sugarcane straw burning emissions are becoming effective.",
