More than four out of every five wildfires are started by people. Negligent human behavior, such as smoking in forested areas or improperly extinguishing campfires, is the cause of many forest fires. Another cause of forest fires is lightning. Prevention efforts include working with the fire servi...
However, the long-term consequences on forest functioning are difficult to assess. The majority of all global forest fires are found in Africa. In this study, a forest model was extended by a fire model to investigate the long-term effects of forest fires on biomass, carbon fluxes, and ...
Another factor is that the United States Forest Service in the first decade of the 1900s adopted the policy of fire suppression (attempting to put out forest fires) for the obvious reason that it did not want valuable timber to go up in smoke, or people's homes and lives to be ...
Deforestation, clearing or thinning of forests by humans to make the land available for other uses. Deforestation is a major driver of terrestrial habitat loss and habitat fragmentation and contributes to global warming. Learn about historical and modern

Van der Werf et al. (2010) reported that Africa was the largest source of fire carbon dioxide over the period 1997–2009, contributing 52 % of global emissions. However, only approximately 15 % of African emissions were attributable to forest and deforestation fires; most emissions occurred in...
Because forest remnants throughout the world are rapidly dwindling in size, clearly it is incumbent upon researchers to consider these new findings and focus greater attention on large-scale edge effects. One other potentially far-reaching edge effect, for which there are almost no quantitative data...
aCloud-to-ground (CG) flashes are very common and have been well documented. They exchange charge between the cloud and ground. These flashes affect man greatly, causing injury and death, disrupting power and communications, and igniting forest fires. Because of these impacts, the cloud-to-grou...
