to model this source of atmospheric methane. Finally, this chapter will end with a statement of the hypotheses of this thesis, at<br />

which time a description of the information contained in the rest of this document will be provided.<br />

The BOReal Ecosystem-Atmosphere Study Trace Gas Biogeochemistry (BOREAS TGB-5) team collected several data sets<br />

related to the effects of fire on the exchange of trace gases between the surface <strong>and</strong> the atmosphere. This raster format data set<br />

covers the province of Manitoba between 1980 <strong>and</strong> 1991. The data were gridded into the Albers Equal-Area Conic (AEAC) projection<br />

from the original vector data. The original vector data were produced by Forestry Canada from h<strong>and</strong>-drawn boundaries<br />

of fires on photocopies of 1:250,000-scale maps. The locational accuracy of the data is considered fair to poor. When the locations<br />

of some fire boundaries were compared to LANDSAT TM images, they were found to be off by as much as a few kilometers. This<br />

problem should be kept in mind when using these data. The data are stored in binary, image format files.<br />

The BOREAS TGB-1 team made several chamber <strong>and</strong> tower measurements of trace gases at sites in the BOREAS NSA. This<br />

data set contains sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) dark chamber flux measurements at the NSA-OJP <strong>and</strong> NSA-YJP sites from 16-May<br />

through 13-Sep-1994. Gas samples were extracted approximately every 7 days from dark chambers <strong>and</strong> analyzed at the NSA lab<br />

facility. The data are provided in tabular ASCII files.<br />
