What environmental and climatic factors influence multidecadal fire frequency?
Fire is a key ecosystem process with more than half the world's land surface potentially subject to fire. A key aspect of fire ecology is the fire regime, with fire frequency an important component.

A prediction method of fire frequency: Based on the optimization of SARIMA model. [PDF]
In the current study, based on the national fire statistics from 2003 to 2017, we analyzed the 24-hour occurrence regularity of fire in China to study the occurrence regularity and influencing factors of fire and provide a reference for scientific and ...

The fire frequency-severity relationship and the legacy of fire suppression in California forests
Fire is one of the most important natural disturbance processes in the western United States and ecosystems differ markedly with respect to their ecological and evolutionary relationships with fire.

The influence of fire frequency on the structure and botanical composition of savanna ecosystems. [PDF]
Savannas cover 60% of the land surface in Southern Africa, with fires and herbivory playing a key role in their ecology. The Limpopo National Park (LNP) is a 10,000 km2 conservation area in southern Mozambique and key to protecting savannas in the region.

Effects of fire frequency on litter decomposition as mediated by changes to litter chemistry and soil environmental conditions. [PDF]
Litter quality and soil environmental conditions are well-studied drivers influencing decomposition rates, but the role played by disturbance legacy, such as fire history, in mediating these drivers is not well understood.

Lidar-derived estimates of forest structure in response to fire frequency
Antecedentes Los ecosistemas de pino de hoja larga (Pinus palustris) son reconocidos como focos de biodiversidad y su sustentabilidad está fuertemente ligada a un complejo nexo de retroalimentaciones entre fuegos, composición, y estructura.

Modelling fire frequency in a Cerrado savanna protected area. [PDF]
Covering almost a quarter of Brazil, the Cerrado is the world’s most biologically rich tropical savanna. Fire is an integral part of the Cerrado but current land use and agricultural practices have been changing fire regimes, with undesirable ...

Big data integration shows Australian bush-fire frequency is increasing significantly. [PDF]
Increasing Australian bush-fire frequencies over the last decade has indicated a major climatic change in coming future. Understanding such climatic change for Australian bush-fire is limited and there is an urgent need of scientific research, which is ...
