Global fire emissions and the contribution of deforestation, savanna, forest, agricultural, and peat fires (1997-2009)

, 2010
. New burned area datasets and top-down constraints from atmospheric concentration measurements of pyrogenic gases have decreased the large uncertainty in fire emissions estimates. However, significant gaps remain in our understanding of the contribution

Record-high CO2 emissions from boreal fires in 2021

Science, 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 ...

Designing Asymmetric Memristive Behavior in Proton Mixed Conductors for Neuromorphic Applications

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Protonic devices that couple ionic and electronic transport are demonstrated as bioinspired neuromorphic elements. The devices exhibit rubber‐like asymmetric memristive behavior with slow voltage‐driven conductance increase and rapid relaxation, enabling simplified read–write operation.

Research on the influencing factors and prevention measures of long-term forest fire risk in Northeast China

Ecological Indicators, 2023
Forest fires damage ecological environment and increase carbon emissions. To reduce the adverse effects of fire on forests, the long-term (2002–2022) fires data were analyzed in the Great Xing'an Mountains region of Northeast China.
