We present a systematic comparison of tropo- spheric NO2 from 17 global atmospheric chemistry mod- els with three state-of-the-art retrievals from the Global Ozone Monitoring Experiment (GOME) for the year 2000. The models used constant anthropogenic emissions from IIASA/EDGAR3.2 and monthly emissions from biomass burning based on the 1997-2002 average carbon emissions from the Global Fire Emissions Database (GFED). Model output is analyzed at 10:30 local time, close to the overpass time of the ERS-2 satellite, and collocated with the measure- ments to account for sampling biases due to incomplete spa-

Comparison of Adjoint and Analytical Bayesian Inversion Methods for Constraining Asian Sources of Carbon Monoxide Using Satellite (MOPITT) Measurements of CO Columns (2009, background): “The adjoint solution agrees closely with van der Werf et al. [2006] for southeastern Asia (Table 1) and eastern India (Figure 4) as biomass burning emissions constitute >80% of total emissions in those regions.”

(2017, methodology): “These emissions apply a QFED scaling to RETROv2 emissions (1980–96; Duncan et al. 2003) and the Global Fire Emission Dataset (GFED), version 3.1 (1997–2009; Randerson et al. 2006; van der Werf et al. 2006).”
The global lightning-induced nitrogen oxides source (2007, methodology): “Models compute that LNO x contributes less than 20% to the column (Martin et EGU al., 2003; Boersma et al., 2005; van Noije et al., 2006) with localized fractions of more than 80% in regions with weak surface NO x emissions (Martin et al., 2007).”
Heterogeneous freezing of ice on atmospheric aerosols containing ash, soot, and soil (2009, neutral): “Particles containing humic-like substances (HULIS) are present in the atmosphere in high concentrations and are also potentially important nuclei [ Graber and Rudich , 2006].”
The deposition ice nucleation and immersion freezing potential of amorphous secondary organic aerosol: Pathways for ice and mixed‐phase cloud formation (2012, neutral): “…as SRFA, is often applied as surrogates of soluble atmospheric HUmic-LIke Substances (HULIS) which represent multifunctional organic material with high molecular weight typical of biomass burning aerosol [e.g., Fuzzi et al., 2001; Dinar et al., 2006a; Graber and Rudich, 2006;Wang and Knopf, 2011].”

The Collection 6 MODIS burned area mapping algorithm and product (2018, background): “In addition, since 2006 the MCD64A1 product has been a major component of the Global Fire Emissions Database (Giglio et al., 2010, 2013; van der Werf et al., 2006, 2010, 2017), which has in turn been used in the investigation of a similarly broad set of research questions (e.g., Chen et al., 2013;…”
