Assessing wildfire dynamics during a megafire in Portugal using the MesoNH/ForeFire coupled model

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Weather conditions affect megafires by inducing different fire behaviors over several days or weeks. The coupled MesoNH/ForeFire code was used to represent the dynamics of fire generating pyro‐convective clouds. To advance the understanding of wildfire dynamics, high‐resolution coupled fire–atmosphere modeling was employed.

Compound risk of wildfire and inaccessible shelters is disproportionately impacting disadvantaged communities

Progress in Disaster Science
This study proposes measuring access to shelters and wildfire risks in tandem rather than in isolation to prevent wildfires from turning into human disasters.

ECOSTRESS‐derived semi‐arid forest temperature and evapotranspiration estimates demonstrate drought and thinning impacts

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that ECOSTRESS lands surface temperature (LST) data are sensitive to forest thinning, regional drought, and their interaction. Consistent with high‐resolution UAV images, ECOSTRESS LST data indicate thinned forest had significantly greater temperature across years.

Investigating boreal forest successional stages in Alaska and Northwest Canada using UAV‐LiDAR and RGB and a community detection network

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
This study develops a novel application of UAV‐LiDAR and Red Green Blue (RGB) data and network analysis to enhance our understanding of boreal forest succession. The results indicate that tree height and spectral variables are the most influential predictors of plant functional type in random forest algorithms, and high overall accuracies were attained.

Climate Change and Energy Security Risk: Do Green Patents, Institutional Quality, and Human Capital Make a Difference?

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate change poses a significant threat to global energy security, yet the mechanisms through which this relationship unfolds—and the factors that buffer their adverse impacts—remain underexplored. This study examines the link between climate change, proxied by CO2 emissions, and energy security risk (ESR), with a particular focus on the ...

From Global Mapping to Local Action: Green Finance, Regulatory Frameworks, and Policy Transformation for Sustainable Energy Transition in Qatar and Türkiye

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In 2024, global annual issuance exceeded USD 1.1 trillion mostly through green bonds, credits, and sustainability‐linked instruments, yet significant regional disparities remain. This article examines how Qatar and Türkiye, two hydrocarbon‐dependent but rapidly transitioning economies, are integrating green finance into their sustainability ...
