Analysis of the Fire Season of 2020 in the Mediterranean Bioclimatic Zone of Croatian Adriatic

open access: yesSouth-East European Forestry, 2022
Fire season in the Mediterranean bioclimatic area is most associated with the period from June to late October. Despite this, a large number of fires occur in February and March due to the intentional burning of agricultural lands.

Division of the tropical savanna fire season into early and late dry season burning using MODIS active fires

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Earth Observation and Geoinformation, 2023
Tropical savannas and grasslands are the most frequently burned biome in the world, and fire has an important role in sustaining ecosystem processes. Modern management of fires in savannas has roots in traditions stretching back centuries, and nowadays earth observation data is incorporated extensively in fire management practices. In tropical savannas

Rainfall patterns after fire differentially affect the recruitment of three Mediterranean shrubs [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2011
In fire-prone environments, the "event-dependent hypothesis" states that plant population changes are driven by the unique set of conditions of a fire (e.g. fire season, climate).

“Smelltronics”—From Gas to Smell Sensing

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
The emerging field of smelltronics, encompassing sensing technologies for complex volatile organic compounds, holds significant potential for extracting valuable chemical information. It facilitates the noninvasive, real‐time monitoring of humans, food, and the environment.

Varying relationships between fire radiative power and fire size at a global scale [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2019
Vegetation fires are an important process in the Earth system. Fire intensity locally impacts fuel consumption, damage to the vegetation, chemical composition of fire emissions and also how fires spread across landscapes.

How changing fire management policies affect fire seasonality and livelihoods

open access: yesAmbio, 2020
There is a long history of fire management in African savannas, but knowledge of historical and current use of fire is scarce in savanna-woodland biomes. This study explores past and present fire management practices and perceptions of the Khwe (former hunter-gatherers) and Mbukushu (agropastoralists) communities as well as government and non ...

Neuromorphic Near‐Sensor and In‐Sensor Computing Enabled by Next‐Generation Material‐Based Sensors

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This Review presents a structural framework that classifies neuromorphic sensing into near‐sensor and in‐sensor architectures, clarifying physical coupling between sensing and computation. The framework connects neural and synaptic device functions with recent advances in optical, mechanical, and chemical sensing, compares energy consumption and ...

Savanna canopy trees under fire: long‐term persistence and transient dynamics from a stage‐based matrix population model

open access: yesEcosphere, 2019
Fire is a major disturbance driving the dynamics of the world's savannas. Almost all fires are set by humans who are increasingly altering fire timing and frequency on every continent.
