Short summary
We created a new independent method that uses only near real time satellite data to estimate how much carbon is emitted from landscape fires in the high latitudes. Our estimates are similar, but smaller, than estimates using modelled data, based on laboratory experiments and observations of burned area. This provides the first clear picture of fire emissions across high-latitude regions and will help us better understand the role of wildfires in climate change now and in the future.
