Connections of climate change and variability to large and extreme forest fires in southeast Australia

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment, 2021
The 2019/20 Black Summer bushfire disaster in southeast Australia was unprecedented: the extensive area of forest burnt, the radiative power of the fires, and the extraordinary number of fires that developed into extreme pyroconvective events were all ...

U.S. fires became larger, more frequent, and more widespread in the 2000s

open access: yesScience Advances, 2022
Recent fires have fueled concerns that regional and global warming trends are leading to more extreme burning. We found compelling evidence that average fire events in regions of the United States are up to four times the size, triple the frequency, and ...

African burned area and fire carbon emissions are strongly impacted by small fires undetected by coarse resolution satellite data

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2021
Significance Fires burn an area comparable to Europe each year, emitting greenhouse gases and aerosols. We compared burned area (BA) based on 20-m resolution images with a BA derived from 500-m data.

21st Century drought-related fires counteract the decline of Amazon deforestation carbon emissions

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Tropical carbon emissions are largely derived from direct forest clearing processes. Yet, emissions from drought-induced forest fires are, usually, not included in national-level carbon emission inventories.

Exacerbated fires in Mediterranean Europe due to anthropogenic warming projected with non-stationary climate-fire models

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
The observed trend towards warmer and drier conditions in southern Europe is projected to continue in the next decades, possibly leading to increased risk of large fires.

Towards a global assessment of pyrogenic carbon from vegetation fires

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, 2016
The production of pyrogenic carbon (PyC; a continuum of organic carbon (C) ranging from partially charred biomass and charcoal to soot) is a widely acknowledged C sink, with the latest estimates indicating that ~50% of the PyC produced by vegetation ...

Record-high CO2 emissions from boreal fires in 2021

open access: yesScience, 2023
Extreme wildfires are becoming more common and increasingly affecting Earth’s climate. Wildfires in boreal forests have attracted much less attention than those in tropical forests, although boreal forests are one of the most extensive biomes on Earth ...
