Abstract
Emissions from vegetation fires are recognized as important contributions to biogeochemical cycles of elements. A brief overview is given on emissions of the trace components CO, CH4, and NOxdetermined under various field and laboratory conditions. The influence of these emissions of trace gases on their global turnover is shown to be important. Finally, the emissions due to burning of fuelwood for traditional cooking is compared to the influences of emissions due to wild vegetation fires.Keywords
