Unravelling the spatial and temporal variability of natural disturbances in European forests
The heterogeneity of natural disturbance patterns and high temporal variability across European Forest suggest the need of adopting context‐dependent management strategies tailored to both the dominant disturbance agent and local environmental conditions, particularly in the most vulnerable regions, such as the Iberian Peninsula—with large and frequent

MAPA GEOECOLÓGICO DE POTENCIALIDADE A OCORRÊNCIA DE INCÊNDIOS NO PARQUE NACIONAL DO ITATIAIA/RJ
Os incêndios vêm modificando progressivamente a paisagem do Parque Nacional do Itatiaia (PARNA do Itatiaia). Sua freqüência reduz o número de árvores e facilita a propagação de espécies que dificultam a regeneração de outras plantas.

ABSTRACT This article explains why the European Union Wildfire Risk Management instruments have evolved since the 1980s, even though the underlying patterns of wildfire events have remained largely unchanged. It argues that these changes stem from competing institutional actors promoting distinct policy frames within the European Union's (EU ...

ABSTRACT Climate disasters are currently changing territory around the world by showing large inequalities that exist in infrastructure systems, governance arrangements, and development pathways. In many cases, climate risk response strategies like managed retreat have been framed as practical approaches to respond to increasing climate disasters ...

[Introducción]: Algunas variables ayudan a explicar la Superficie Forestal Afectada por Incendios (SFAI) que si bien, se conocen intuitivamente, no se han cuantificado para estimar su importancia en la prevención al combate de los incendios forestales. [

Wildland–urban interface expansion: Towards comprehensive planning processes
Abstract Wildland–urban interface (WUI) expansion is accelerating in numerous regions around the world due to increasing amenity‐led migration processes, defined as the movement of people seeking higher environmental quality. While WUI areas are complex social–ecological systems requiring holistic planning and management, they are usually approached ...

Disaster Cross‐Sector Collaboration Networks: Evidence from Four Historical Disasters
ABSTRACT By conducting content analysis and social network analysis of media coverage of four historical disasters (i.e., the 2011 Joplin Tornado, 2013 Moore Tornado, 2017 Hurricane Harvey, and the 2023 Maui wildfire), this study uncovered characteristics of cross‐sector disaster collaboration networks.

Lower forest harvesting in Natura 2000 sites may align with socio‐economic barriers often claimed by local communities, but protection does not influence vulnerability to other disturbances. In a general scenario of reduced forest harvesting in the region, we argue that differences in harvesting due to protection are statistically significant but ...
