Disaster Cross‐Sector Collaboration Networks: Evidence from Four Historical Disasters

Risk, Hazards &Crisis in Public Policy, Volume 17, Issue 1, March 2026.
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.

Long‐term comparison shows protected and non‐protected forests differ in harvesting, but not in wildfires or drought‐driven dieback

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 2, February 2026.
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 ...

GÉNESIS DE LOS INCENDIOS FORESTALES

Revista Chapingo Serie Ciencias Forestales y del Ambiente, 2012
Hace casi 470 millones de años, durante el periodo Silúrico, comenzaron los incendios forestales en el planeta. La actividad de los incendios ha experimentado altas y bajas en la historia de la Tierra, principalmente relacionadas con cambios en la concentración de oxígeno atmosférico y los niveles de humedad que han caracterizado la evolución del ...

Media trends and public interest in wildfires in Tuscany, Italy

Geographical Research, Volume 64, Issue 1, February 2026.
Wildfires have increased in intensity and frequency due to climatic and socio‐economic changes. This study analyses media habits about wildfires in Italy, particularly Tuscany. Findings show gaps and correlations between local news and wildfire events, allowing identification of critical areas where deeper risk perception analysis should be conducted ...

Diversity modulates above‐ground productivity in response to disturbances: The case of Iberian forests

Journal of Ecology, Volume 113, Issue 12, Page 3605-3621, December 2025.
We analysed whether forest productivity responses to disturbances were modulated by structural and functional diversity, as well as by functional dominance, and whether these responses vary among functional groups. Forest diversity can mitigate the negative effects of disturbances on productivity.

Finding floral and faunal species richness optima among active fire regimes

Conservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 6, December 2025.
Abstract Changing fire regimes have important implications for biodiversity and challenge traditional conservation approaches that rely on historical conditions as proxies for ecological integrity. This historical‐centric approach becomes increasingly tenuous under climate change, necessitating direct tests of environmental impacts on biodiversity.

Falta de Conciencia ... Incendios forestales

La Revista de Derecho, 2015
Gran número de los incendios forestales no se pueden evitar, como los incendios forestales provocados por la naturaleza.Otros en cambio, podrían ser evitados pero por el grado de indiferencia por parte de la mayoría de la población, no ha sido posible. Esta indiferencia no obedece más que a la falta de conciencia de las personas sobre las consecuencias

Toward a functional understanding of novel fire regimes in tropical forests

American Journal of Botany, Volume 112, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Climate change and land‐use alterations are driving forest fires to unprecedented frequencies and intensities worldwide. Even wet tropical forests—historically rarely subjected to fire—are increasingly experiencing fire disturbances. The impact of wildfires on these forests is likely large, since many of their tree species are not adapted to ...
