Differentiating Fire Regimes and Their Biophysical Drivers in Central Portugal

open access: yesFire, 2023
We characterize fire regimes in central Portugal and investigate the degree to which the differences between regimes are influenced by a set of biophysical drivers.

Drivers of Fire Anomalies in the Brazilian Amazon: Lessons Learned from the 2019 Fire Crisis [PDF]

open access: yesLand, 2020
The 2019 fire crisis in Amazonia dominated global news and triggered fundamental questions about the possible causes behind it. Here we performed an in-depth investigation of the drivers of active fire anomalies in the Brazilian Amazon biome. We assessed

Effects of Forest Fire Prevention Policies on Probability and Drivers of Forest Fires in the Boreal Forests of China during Different Periods

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
Fire prevention policies during different periods may lead to changes in the drivers of forest fires. Here, we use historical fire data and apply the boosted regression tree (BRT) model to analyze the spatial patterns and drivers of forest fires in the ...

Drivers of fire severity shift as landscapes transition to an active fire regime, Klamath Mountains, USA

open access: yesEcosphere, 2021
Fire severity patterns are driven by interactions between fire, vegetation, and terrain, and they generate legacy effects that influence future fire severity.

Climate-driven upward spread of forest fires in European mountain regions [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications
Forest fires are an emerging threat to mountain regions yet changes in their elevational distribution and underlying drivers remain largely unknown. Here, we integrate satellite-derived burned area data, with climate, forest cover, and human footprint ...

Fire Drivers Affecting Forest Fire Occurrences in the Tropical Mixed Broad-leaved Forests of Nepal

open access: yesApplied Environmental Research, 2021
Forest fires triggered by various natural and anthropogenic drivers are increasing and threatening forest ecosystems across the globe. In Nepal, the high value Tropical Mixed Broad-leaved Forests are prone to fire caused by both natural and ...

Large-Fire Ignitions Are Higher in Protected Areas than Outside Them in West-Central Spain

open access: yesFire, 2023
Managing protected areas requires knowing what factors control fire ignitions and how likely they are compared to non-protected ones. Here, we modelled fire ignition likelihood in west-central Spain as a function of biophysical and anthropogenic ...

Predictive model of spatial scale of forest fire driving factors: a case study of Yunnan Province, China

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Forest fires are among the major natural disasters that destroy the balance of forest ecosystems. The construction of a forest fire prediction model to investigate the driving mechanism of fire drivers on forest fires can help reveal the mechanism of ...
