| Abstract | Fire is a major disturbance regime for boreal forest and is also a major factor in the exchange of carbon between biotic components and the atmosphere. The occurrence of fire in boreal forests is extensive, and individual fire events typically cover large areas, with fires between 1000 and >1000000 ha in size accounting for >98% of all area burned. The effects of these large fire events can easily be discriminated on a variety of satellite remote sensing system. Studies are currently underway to compare field data of surface characteristics in a fire-disturbed spruce forest in east-central Alaska to a variety of satellite data collected over this region. These studies have shown that remote sensing data collected in different regions of the electromagnetic spectrum can be used to estimate different surface characteristics related to the effects of the fire. The authors discuss how these satellite-derived surface parameters can be used to study patterns of carbon storage and release in fire-disturbed spruce forests. Three different aspects of the carbon cycle are presently being studied using multi-sensor satellite data: (1) the amount of carbon released during into the atmosphere via biomass burning during the fire event; (2) carbon flux rates after the fire due to aerobic (CO/sub 2/) and anaerobic (CH/sub 4/) decomposition; and (3) patterns of carbon storage in aboveground biomass during secondary succession. The authors illustrate how satellite-remote sensing data can be used to study these processes.< |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
