Across the globe, human activities have been gaining importance relatively to climate and ecology as the main controls on fire regimes and consequently human activity became an important driver of the frequency, extent and intensity of vegetation burning
The main objectives are summarized as: (i) to identify the effective variables affecting soil erosion by wind using Harris Hawk Optimization (HHO) algorithm—a feature section algorithm for the identification of the important factors controlling wind erosion, (ii) to map land susceptibility to wind...
Nassib played at Penn State before being drafted by the Cleveland Browns in the third round of the 2016 draft. He played for the Browns and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers before signing with the Raiders ahead of the 2020 season. A handful of former NFL players have come out after they retired b...
This recent trend of high temperatures and dryness is expected to lead to an increase in active wildfires [1]. Recent active forest fires are not only hazardous to human health but are also destroying the environment and infrastructure and killing wildlife [2]. The annual global area burned ...
Such wildfires produce uncontainable, airborne, and hazardous smoke, which potentially carries radioactive material, thus becoming the specter of the original disaster. As wildfires occur more frequently with climate change and land use changes, nuclear wildfires present a pressing yet little discussed ...
Similarly, forests with NPP values ranging from 2500 to 5000 kg·C/m2 are defined as active fire-induced FRST-pattern, which represents an active fire-induced pattern of natural-induced wildfires in forests with high tree/shrub cover. As the climatic and hydrological conditions vary slightly in...

However, wildfires are a socio-natural hazard that annually affect millions of hectares of forests, woodlands, and other vegetation, endangering human populations, and causing substantial economic losses, both in terms of assets destroyed and in the form of prevention and suppression costs [2]. ...
(USA), and six eruptions on the Galápagos Archipelago (Ecuador). We found that an FRP filter of 35 ± 17 MW/pixel worked well at the onset and during the first weeks of an eruption. Afterward, once the cumulative statistical parameters had stabilized, a filter that better fit the ...
