Climate models may be missing massive carbon emissions from boreal wildfires

Wildfires sweeping through the vast boreal forests of Alaska, Canada, Scandinavia, and Russia could be having a larger impact on the climate than scientists once believed. A new study led by researchers at UC Berkeley suggests these northern fires may release far more carbon into the atmosphere than current estimates indicate.
