Projected increases in western US forest fire despite growing fuel constraints
Communications Earth & Environment, 2021 Escalating burned area in western US forests punctuated by the 2020 fire season has heightened the need to explore near-term macroscale forest-fire area trajectories.

Simulation of harvester productivity in selective and boom-corridor thinning of young forests [PDF]
, 2012 Forest management practices may change in the future, due to increases in the extraction of forest fuel in first thinnings. Simulation models can be used to aid in developing new harvesting systems.

Assessment of the Dual Polarimetric Sentinel-1A Data for Forest Fuel Moisture Content Estimation
Remote Sensing, 2019 Fuel moisture content (FMC) is a crucial variable affecting fuel ignition and rate of fire spread. Much work so far has focused on the usage of remote sensing data from multiple sensors to derive FMC; however, little attention has been devoted to the ...

Prediction of Wildfire Fuel Load for Pinus densiflora Stands in South Korea Based on the Forest-Growth Model [PDF]
, 2022 A prediction model was developed for the wildfire fuel load of Korean red pine (Pinus densiflora) stands with susceptibility to forest fire based on the forest-growth model.

Skidders Fuel Consumption in Two Different Working Regions and Types of Forest Management [PDF]
, 2021 For the needs of fuel consumption analysis, a database for a period of 2 years was created for three types of skidders operating in two different management methods—even-aged and selective forests.

Forests fuel fish growth in freshwater deltas [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2014 Aquatic ecosystems are fuelled by biogeochemical inputs from surrounding lands and within-lake primary production. Disturbances that change these inputs may affect how aquatic ecosystems function and deliver services vital to humans. Here we test, using a forest cover gradient across eight separate catchments, whether disturbances that remove ...

Eruptive Behaviour of Forest Fires [PDF]
, 2010 A critical review of the mechanisms that are described in the literature to explain the onset and development of eruption or blow up in forest fires is presented, given their great relevance for fire safety, particularly in canyons. The various processes
