Causes of wildland fires and factors that influence knowledge of fire management at Crofton village, Makoni district, Zimbabwe [PDF]

, 2018
Wildland fires are a threat to the conservation of biodiversity and human life. In Zimbabwe, the newly re-settled smallholder farmers are perceived as the major drivers of wildland fires.

Eco‐evolutionary context modifies a destructive plant invader's response to climate

New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 5, Page 2980-2994, September 2026.
Abiotic environment–fitness relationships can be shaped by evolutionary, ecological, and eco‐evolutionary contexts. Summary Understanding the relationship between climate and fitness will be important when predicting how plant populations respond to climate change. We conducted a replicated common garden experiment (4 sites × 2 yr) with 96 genotypes (n

Wildland fire entrainment: The missing link between wildland fire and its environment

PNAS Nexus
Abstract Wildfires are growing in destructive power, and accurately predicting the spread and intensity of wildland fire is essential for managing ecological and societal impacts. No current operational models used for fire behavior prediction resolve critical fire-atmospheric coupling or nonlocal influences of the fire environment ...

Establishing safety distances for wildland fires

, 2008
In wildland fires, safety zones should be considered concerning people who are intervening in the emergency or attempting evacuation. To establish such zones, the solid flame model, together with the view factor calculated from a previously selected ...

On the wind advection influence on the fire spread across a fuel bed: modelling by a semi-physical approach and testing with experiments [PDF]

, 2001
This paper is devoted to the study of the advection effect on the fire spread across a fuel bed by means of a semi-physical model. This work is a step forward in our general process which consists in elaborating a simple model of fire spread to be used ...

Impact of Wildfires on LPG Tanks

Chemical Engineering Transactions, 2013
During wildland fires, wildland-urban interfaces may cause significant problems for emergency managers throughout the world. Several works focused on safety zones aiming to prevent houses to burn, but no work focused on the LPG tanks which can be located

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.

Methane Emissions From Wildfires: Trends and Anomalies

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract Wildfires emit smoke particles and trace gases including greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, impacting the environment and leading to detrimental impacts on human health and economy. The estimation of spatially and temporally resolved methane emissions from biomass burning (BB) provides critical information in developing measurement‐informed
