On the prevalence of Forest Fires in Spain [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2019 Abstract We study the prevalence of forest fires in Spain in the long run by computing the probability that a forest tree, as opposed to shrub or bush, will be lost to fire over the course of the year. Climate change is first shown to increase the likelihood of this event.

Fuel Dynamics Following Wildfire in US Northern Rockies Forests
Frontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2020 Accumulation of dead woody material is a critical management concern following wildfires, especially given the possibility of subsequent wildfires. Forest structure and fuel accumulation are largely driven by site climatic conditions, so variability in ...

A Case Study of Nitrogen Saturation in Western U.S. Forests
The Scientific World Journal, 2001 Virtually complete nitrification of the available ammonium in soil and nitrification activity in the forest floor are important factors predisposing forests in the San Bernardino Mountains of southern California to nitrogen (N) saturation.
