Interictal and seizure‐onset scalp electroencephalographic patterns in malformations of cortical development

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Malformations of cortical development (MCDs) are a frequent cause of drug‐resistant epilepsy and a common indication for resective epilepsy surgery. As magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) lacks sensitivity for subtle MCDs, supplemental diagnostic tools are needed.

Epilepsy syndromes classification

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Epilepsy syndromes are distinct electroclinical entities which have been recently defined by the International League Against Epilepsy Nosology and Definitions Task Force. Each syndrome is associated with “a characteristic cluster of clinical and EEG features, often supported by specific etiologic findings”.

Prescribed fire placement matters more than increasing frequency and extent in a simulated Pacific Northwest landscape

open access: yesEcosphere
Prescribed fire has been increasingly promoted to reduce wildfire risk and restore fire‐adapted ecosystems. Yet, the complexities of forest ecosystem dynamics in response to disturbances, climate change, and drought stress, combined with myriad social ...

Evaluating Prescribed Fires

open access: yes, 1985
A preliminary method for classifying fire severity permits managers to predict fire effects with reasonable accuracy and thus assists them in prescription development. The classification described here consists of a two-dimensional matrix of flame length classes and depth of char classes.

Changes in soil chemical properties after prescribed fire in a mountain area covered by shrubs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Currently, forest fires are a serious problem in the Mediterranean ecosystems. The abandonment of the rural areas has led to the accumulation of biomass fuel. One of the techniques applied in the management of vegetation in forest areas is the prescribed

Prescribed fire and its impacts on ecosystem services in the UK.

open access: yesScience of the Total Environment, 2018
The impacts of vegetation fires on ecosystems are complex and varied affecting a range of important ecosystem services. Fire has the potential to affect the physicochemical and ecological status of water systems, alter several aspects of the carbon cycle

Research on Thermal Runaway Multiphysics Coupling Simulation and Sensor Optimization Layout of Lithium Iron Phosphate Energy Storage Battery Packs

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This study explores thermal runaway in lithium‐iron‐phosphate energy storage battery packs through multi‐physics coupling simulation. Thermal runaway evolves from battery cells (experiencing overcharge, bulging, safety valve opening, and gas venting) to battery clusters (a) and propagates within the battery pack (b). Simulation results indicate: stress

LIABILITY, REGULATION AND ENDOGENOUS RISK: INCIDENCE AND SEVERITY OF ESCAPED PRESCRIBED FIRES IN THE UNITED STATES [PDF]

open access: yes
Prescribed fire is a useful but risky method for reducing general wildfire risk and improving wildlife habitat, biodiversity, timber growth, and agricultural forage.

Forced Draught Impact on Externally Venting Flames: An Experimental and Numerical Investigation

open access: yesFire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Wind can significantly influence fire development and spread in urban and forest environments causing fatal consequences for the public, the first responders, and the environment. Wind‐driven fires can have a significant impact on structural fires as wind can increase the fire's intensity, development, and flame spread.

Prescribed Fire Effects on Hummingbird Taxonomic and Functional Diversity in Pine–Oak Forests in West-Central Mexico

open access: yesBirds
Prescribed fires are a management strategy involving the controlled application of fire to achieve specific ecological objectives. In the pine–oak forests in west-central Mexico, we conducted an experimental low-severity prescribed fire to assess its ...
