Improving prediction and assessment of global fires using multilayer neural networks
Scientific Reports, 2021 Fires determine vegetation patterns, impact human societies, and are a part of complex feedbacks into the global climate system. Empirical and process-based models differ in their scale and mechanistic assumptions, giving divergent predictions of fire ...

Modelling the drivers of natural fire activity: the bias created by cropland fires [PDF]
International Journal of Wildland Fire, 2017 Wildland and cropland fires, which differ considerably in fire regime characteristics, have often been evaluated jointly to estimate regional or global fire regimes using satellite-based fire activity data. We hypothesised that excluding cropland fires will change the output of the models regarding the drivers of natural fire activity.

Remote Sensing, 2023 Cambodia has the most fires per area in Southeast Asia, with fire activity have significantly increased since the early 2000s. Wildfire occurrences are multi-factorial in nature, and isolating the relative contribution of each driver remains a challenge.

Dominant Drivers of Seedling Establishment in a Fire-Dependent Obligate Seeder: Climate or Fire Regimes? [PDF]
Ecosystems, 2013 Climate change is causing fire regime shifts in ecosystems worldwide. Plant species with regeneration strategies strongly linked to a fire regime, such as obligate seeders, may be particularly threatened by these changes. It is unclear whether changes in fire regimes or the direct effects of climate change will be the dominant threats to obligate ...

Geomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk, 2023 The occurrence of forest fires is determined by fuel, climate and ignition sources at different temporal and spatial scales. However, most analyses are performed only on a single scale, and few comprehensive statistical analyses elaborate on the cross ...

Complex responses of birds to landscape‐level fire extent, fire severity and environmental drivers [PDF]
Diversity and Distributions, 2014 AbstractAimTo quantify bird responses to a large unplanned fire, taking into consideration landscape‐level fire severity and extent, pre‐fire site detection frequency and environmental gradients.LocationSouth‐easternAustralia.MethodsA major wildfire in 2009 coincided with a long‐term study of birds and provided a rare opportunity to quantify bird ...

How climate change and fire exclusion drive wildfire regimes at actionable scales
Environmental Research Letters, 2021 Extreme wildfires are increasing in frequency globally, prompting new efforts to mitigate risk. The ecological appropriateness of risk mitigation strategies, however, depends on what factors are driving these increases. While regional syntheses attribute

Microbial Community Responses to Alterations in Historical Fire Regimes in Montane Grasslands
Diversity, 2023 The influence of fire regimes on soil microbial diversity in montane grasslands is a relatively unexplored area of interest. Understanding the belowground diversity is a crucial stepping-stone toward unravelling community dynamics, nutrient sequestration,

Promoting Low-Risk Fire Regimes: An Agent-Based Model to Explore Wildfire Mitigation Policy Options
Fire, 2023 Landscape patterns and composition were identified as key drivers of fire risk and fire regimes. However, few studies have focused on effective policymaking aimed at encouraging landowners to diversify the landscape and make it more fire-resilient.

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Super‐Refractory Status Epilepticus (SRSE) is a rare, life‐threatening neurological emergency with unclear etiology in many cases. Mitochondrial dysfunction, often due to disease‐causing genetic variants, is increasingly recognized as a cause, with each gene producing distinct pathophysiological mechanisms.
