The Relationship Between Wildfire and Welfare [PDF]
We used the well-being evaluation method, a technique for measuring individual utility, to study how people in the wildland urban interface of Colorado (USA) felt about their lives before and after two wildfire scenarios.

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Despite South Korea's extensive forest coverage, which accounts for approximately 63% of its total land area, the country imports over 83% of its timber needs and has shown a gradual decline in forest carbon sequestration capacity. The Circular Forest Management Policy (CFMP) addresses these challenges through systematic forest resource ...

Climate-induced variations in global wildfire danger from 1979 to 2013
Nature Communications, 2015 Climate strongly influences global wildfire activity, and recent wildfire surges may signal fire weather-induced pyrogeographic shifts. Here we use three daily global climate data sets and three fire danger indices to develop a simple annual metric of ...

Letting People in: Redefining Collaboration in Wildland–Urban Interface Governance
Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Intensifying wildfire regimes and expanding human settlements into wilderness areas have heightened concerns about the wildland–urban interface (WUI) due to the associated increase in fire risk. However, the WUI presents broader social‐ecological challenges that go beyond wildfire risk and remain understudied.

Optimal wildfire insurance in the wildland-urban interface in the presence of a government subsidy for fire risk mitigation [PDF]
We investigate the effectiveness of a government subsidy and mitigation based insurance contracts at discouraging migration into the wildland interface and at inducing incentives for risk mitigation.

Forecasting heart failure: Seasonal alignment of heart failure outcomes in New York
ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 819-831, April 2025.Abstract Background Seasonal variations have been observed in heart failure (HF) hospitalization. Numerous explanatory mechanisms have been proposed, but no prior studies have examined potential contributors directly. Our objective was to identify specific factors that could contribute to seasonal variability using a large longitudinal dataset of HF ...
