An experimental method to investigate the water-based suppression of smoldering peat fire
MethodsX, 2020 Smoldering wildfire in peatlands is one of the largest and most persistent fire phenomena on Earth, which contributes importantly to global carbon emissions. However, very few studies are available on how to extinguish these smoldering wildfires. Herein,

Modeling fuel treatment impacts on fire suppression cost savings: A review
California Agriculture, 2015 High up-front costs and uncertain return on investment make it difficult for land managers to economically justify large-scale fuel treatments, which remove trees and other vegetation to improve conditions for fire control, reduce the likelihood of ...

Experimental study on peat fire suppression through water injection in laboratory scale
Alexandria Engineering Journal, 2022 Peat fires can persistently last for an extended period after being ignited, despite rainfall and firefighting efforts. The difficulty of peat fire suppression is mainly due to the smoldering spreading through the subsurface layer.

How Does Fire Suppression Alter the Wildfire Regime? A Systematic Review
Fire, 2023 Fire suppression has become a fundamental approach for shaping contemporary wildfire regimes. However, a growing body of research suggests that aggressive fire suppression can increase high-intensity wildfires, creating the wildfire paradox.
