Algal Blooms in Lakes Increase After Wildfire Smoke Events in the Contiguous United States
Global Change Biology Communications, EarlyView.Temporary pulses of surface chlorophyll‐a are identified following wildfire smoke events in lakes and reservoirs across the United States. ABSTRACT Area burned by wildfire has increased in the contiguous United States and in many places globally in recent years, impacting communities and ecosystems nearby and even far downwind of fires. We examined the

Moderate Fire Temperatures Affect the Structure of Clayey Oxisol Aggregates
Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Wildfires have become increasingly frequent and intense worldwide, raising concerns about their impacts on soil systems. However, the thermal responses of clay‐rich Oxisols, dominated by Fe and Al oxides, remain poorly understood. In this study, samples from the 0 to 5 cm layer of six Oxisols were subjected to controlled heating at ...
