A Holocene fire history from Terra Nova National Park, Newfoundland, Canada: vegetation and climate change both influenced the fire regime

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution
Fire is the largest natural disturbance factor in the boreal forest and plays a critical role in the composition, structure, and succession of stands and landscapes.

Toward Perception‐Native Electronic Skin: Bio‐Inspired In‐/Near‐Sensor and Neuromorphic Computing for Humanoid Robots

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Dense tactile streams from across the humanoid body converge on collide in a central wiring and data bottleneck. By relocating computation closer to and then into the skin itself, near‐ and in‐sensor architectures, together with neuromorphic computing, chart a path toward perception‐native electronic skin, in which the conversion of stimulus into ...

Impact of human population density on fire frequency at the global scale

open access: yes, 2013
Human impact on wildfires, a major earth system component, remains poorly understood. While local studies have found more fires close to settlements and roads, assimilated charcoal records and analyses of regional fire patterns from remote-sensing ...

Hydrological Minimal Model for Savanna Fire Frequency Assessment

open access: yesProcedia Environmental Sciences, 2013
AbstractSavanna is the environmental state in between grassland and forest where trees and grasses coexist without one displacing the other. It is commonly accepted that limited resources, herbivores and fire are responsible for the maintenance of savanna, although, the origin and the dynamics of this ecosystem are poorly understood.A minimal model for
