Brown et al quoted " Halliday, I., Griffin, A. A. & Blackwell, A. T.
Detailed data for 259 fireballs from the Canadian camera
network and inferences concerning the influx of large meteoroids.
Meteoritics 31, 185–217 (1996)." for fireball influx.
¡An it is freely available!:

(from http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/1996M&PS...31..185H )
Read it and tell us the conclusions! :-)
My 2 cents,
