Forest fire size amplifies postfire land surface warming. [PDF]

open access: yesNature
Climate warming has caused a widespread increase in extreme fire weather, making forest fires longer-lived and larger1–3. The average forest fire size in Canada, the USA and Australia has doubled or even tripled in recent decades4,5.

An Improved Forest Fire Detection Method Based on the Detectron2 Model and a Deep Learning Approach

open access: yesItalian National Conference on Sensors, 2023
With an increase in both global warming and the human population, forest fires have become a major global concern. This can lead to climatic shifts and the greenhouse effect, among other adverse outcomes.

Tree Growth Response to Low-Intensity Prescribed Burning in Pinus nigra Stands: Effects of Burn Season and Fire Severity

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
The study of the short-term post-burn tree growth in a mixed stand of Pinus nigra and Pinus pinaster and in a pure stand of P. nigra in the Cuenca Mountains (Spain) will enable us to determine the disturbance of prescribed burning conducted in two ...

A Forest Fire Detection System Based on Ensemble Learning

open access: yesForests, 2021
Due to the various shapes, textures, and colors of fires, forest fire detection is a challenging task. The traditional image processing method relies heavily on manmade features, which is not universally applicable to all forest scenarios.

ARE FOREST FIRES PREDICTABLE? [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Modern Physics C, 2002
Dynamic mean field theory is applied to the problem of forest fires. The starting point is the Monte Carlo simulation in a lattice of a million cells. The statistics of the clusters is obtained by means of the Hoshen–Kopelman algorithm. We get the map pn → pn + 1, where pn is the probability of finding a tree in a cell, and n is the discrete time.

A review of the effects of forest fire on soil properties

open access: yesJournal of Forest Research, 2022
Forest fires are key ecosystem modifiers affecting the biological, chemical, and physical attributes of forest soils. The extent of soil disturbance by fire is largely dependent on fire intensity, duration and recurrence, fuel load, and soil ...
