REFINED ESTIMATES OF DIRECT PYROGENIC CARBON EMISSIONS IN RUSSIAN FORESTS BASED ON REMOTE MONITORING DATA FROM 2011 TO 2023 by D. V. Ershov, E. N. Sochilova, K. A. Kovganko

“…The paper presents refined estimates of direct carbon emissions from forest fires in Russia based on satellite data for the period from 2011 to 2023. The main differences from the estimates in previous our publications are the use of a new version of annually updated products of pre-fire forest combustible fuels (FCF), which include new data on the reserves of FCF in the upper tree canopy, undergrowth, living ground vegetation cover and wood debris. …”

Maximum-likelihood Regression with Systematic Errors for Astronomy and the Physical Sciences. I. Methodology and Goodness-of-fit Statistic of Poisson Data by Massimiliano Bonamente, Yang Chen, Dale Zimmerman

“…This paper presents a new statistical method that enables the use of systematic errors in the maximum-likelihood regression of integer-count Poisson data to a parametric model. The method is primarily aimed at the characterization of the goodness-of-fit statistic in the presence of the over-dispersion that is induced by sources of systematic error, and is based on a quasi-maximum-likelihood method that retains the Poisson distribution of the data. …”
