Beyond ENSO: Temperature, Rainfall Variability and Emerging Climate Risks in Belize

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study analyses 50 years (1975–2024) of Belize's climate data to evaluate ENSO's influence. Results show negligible ENSO impact on rainfall but a moderate signal in nighttime dry‐season temperatures, with El Niño years 0.5°C–1.0°C warmer than La Niña years.

Present and future interannual variability in wildfire occurrence: a large ensemble application to the United States

Frontiers in Forests and Global Change
Realistic projections of future wildfires need to account for both the stochastic nature of climate and the randomness of individual fire events. Here we adopt a probabilistic approach to predict current and future fire probabilities using a large ...

Biochar and Hydrochar as Soil‐Based Carbon Sequestration Technologies: Implications for Greenhouse Gas Mitigation

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biochar and hydrochar have emerged as promising carbon‐based amendments for enhancing soil carbon sequestration and mitigating greenhouse gas emissions. This review synthesizes and critically compares current knowledge on the production technologies, physicochemical properties, stabilization mechanisms, carbon persistence, and life‐cycle ...

Reply ‘‘Extraterrestrial impacts and wildfires’’

, 2002
Wildfires tend to occur when the environmental conditions are right: typically, abundant fuel source, dry weather, and high winds. It seems improbable that even with a potentially intense ignition source such as an extraterrestrial impact, fires would be

The mental health impacts of climate change across diverse global settings

Journal of Traumatic Stress, EarlyView.
Abstract Climate change represents a growing threat to global mental health, generating traumatic stress exposures directly through climate‐related disasters and indirectly through social networks and pervasive media coverage. This paper provides an overview of the symposium “The Mental Health Effects of Climate Change Across Diverse Global Settings ...

Global lightning-ignited wildfires prediction and climate change projections based on explainable machine learning models

Scientific Reports
Wildfires pose a significant natural disaster risk to populations and contribute to accelerated climate change. As wildfires are also affected by climate change, extreme wildfires are becoming increasingly frequent.

Vegetation response to a short interval between high-severity wildfires in a mixed-evergreen forest [PDF]

, 2009
1 Variations in disturbance regime strongly influence ecosystem structure and function. A prominent form of such variation is when multiple high-severity wildfires occur in rapid succession (i.e. short-interval (SI) severe fires, or ‘re-burns’).

Cutting through the noise: What can habitat selection modeling teach us about caribou‐fire space use dynamics?

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We synthesize the current knowledge regarding caribou habitat selection in relation to wildfires. Caribou responses to recent burns were generally weak and highly variable across subspecies or ecotypes, suggesting that post‐fire habitat selection is likely context‐dependent and the need for regionally adapted habitat management strategies.

From Ashes to Action: Economic Growth, Ecological Footprint, and Forest Fire Resilience in Advanced and Emerging Economies

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Forest fires have escalated alarmingly, now consuming more than double the tree cover compared to two decades ago, signaling a growing and urgent environmental crisis. This study addresses the ever increasing global concern of forest fires, focusing on sustainable economic recovery while minimizing the ecological footprint amid mounting ...

Wildfires and crisis management : how Swedish municipalities work with crisis management against wildfires

, 2022
In February 2022 the Intergovernmental panel on climate change (IPCC) published a report indicating that wildfires may become more frequent as climate changes keeps progressing.
