As the weather warms up, the threat of wildfires increases.Almost every day, we see images of wildfires all over the news and on social media. And the hot, dry conditions here in the Lone Star State make us particularly susceptible.In...
[1] During early July 2002, wildfires burned 1 106 ha of forest in Quebec, Canada. The resultant smoke plume was seen in satellite images blanketing the U... DeBell,J Linsey - 《Journal of Geophysical Research》 被引量: 291发表: 2004年 Forest fire aerosol over the Mediterranean basin duri...
The Northeast has beenblanketed by smokefrom the Canadian wildfires, prompting warnings about air quality across the region and prompting schools tocancelafter-school events and employers to tell workers to stay home. Smoke from Canada's wildfires is affecting visibility in our airspace and leading ...
We report K–Pg-age deposits in Baja California, Mexico, consisting of terrestrial and shallow-marine materials re-sedimented onto the continental slope, including corals, gastropods, bivalves, shocked quartz grains, an andesitic tuff with a SHRIMP U–Pb
Decaying vegetation,wildfires, and biological processes within the environment also generate acid-rain-forming gases.Dimethyl sulfide is a typical example of a major biological contributor to sulfur-containing elements in the atmosphere. Lighting strikes also naturally produce nitric oxides that react with...
"Byssal threads help mussels to form aggregations, increasing fertilisation success and making mussels more resistant to predation. A reduction in thesebyssal threadsin the wild could lead to cascading impacts on biodiversity as well as reducing yields from aquaculture, as mussels are more likely to ...
WILDFIRESWildfires have short- and long-term impacts on the geoenvironment, including the changes to biogeochemical and mechanical properties of soils, landfill stability, surface- and groundwater, air pollution, and vegetation. Climate change has increased the extent and severity of wildfires across ...

Climate change - Evidence, Causes, Impacts: All historical sciences share a problem: As they probe farther back in time, they become more reliant on fragmentary and indirect evidence. Earth system history is no exception. High-quality instrumental record
The impacts of wildfires on tourist destinations are substantial but also pose risks to local communities, including threats to health and food security [16]. On the other hand, multiple studies have shown the critical role of climate conditions in the devastating fires in the region, e.g., ...
