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

Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Changes in fire regime of boreal forests in response to climate warming are expected to impact postfire recovery. However, quantitative data on how managed forests sustain and recover from recent fire disturbance are limited.

Understanding fire regimes in Europe
International Journal of Wildland Fire, 2021 Wildland fire effects are strongly associated with fire regime characteristics. Here, we developed the first European pyrogeography based on different fire regime components to better understand fire regimes across the continent. We identified four large-scale pyroregions: a non-fire-prone (NFP) pyroregion featuring nominal fire activity across central

Spatial variability of historical fires across a red pine–oak landscape, Pennsylvania, USA
Ecosphere, 2019 Long‐term, ecosystem‐specific fire regime information improves natural community restoration and management by providing a basis for scientifically reasoned fire management prescriptions.

A Disrupted Historical Fire Regime in Central British Columbia
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021 In the 2017 and 2018, 2.55 million hectares burned across British Columbia, Canada, including unanticipated large and high-severity fires in many dry forests.

Large fires, fire effects and the fire-regime concept
International Journal of Wildland Fire, 2008 ‘Large’ fires may be declared so because of their absolute or relative area. Huge fires – with areas of more than 106 ha (104 km2) have occurred across a wide spectrum of Australian environments and are known on other continents. Such large fires are rare whereas fires with much smaller areas are common.

Global scale coupling of pyromes and fire regimes
Communications Earth & Environment, 2023 Different interpretations of the fire regime concept have limited the capacity to allocate specific fire regimes worldwide. To solve this limitation, in this study, we present a framework to frame contemporary fire regimes spatially on a global scale. We

FireFire protection is required to protect metal structures of oil and gas facilities from fires. Such fire protection should provide high fire resistance limits: 60, 90, 120 and more minutes.
