Given their improved spatial and spectral resolutions, the Sentinel-2 MSIs function like an enhanced Landsat, although lacking the thermal bands (Fig. 3). MSIs’ unique four narrow (~ 0.015–0.020 μm) “red edge” bands (Figs.1and 3) are key measurements for plant/ecosystem stress detecti...
In general, if the goal is to store C in the forest, management practices should involve positioning forests to become more healthy, resistant and resilient to avoid or withstand disturbance, such as the anticipated increased climate-change-induced insect and disease epidemics and wildfires (Malmshei...

Over the last decades, evidence has accumulated that there are persistent imprints on understory vegetation diversity[53] by anthropogenic disturbances, e.g., thinning[10], invasive species[54], and wildfires[55], as well as climate change, e.g., drought[56], warming[57], and acidifying ...
Short-term effects of particulate matter on mortality during forest fires in Southern Europe: results of the MED-PARTICLES Project. Background An association between occurrence of wildfires and mortality in the exposed population has been observed in several studies with controversial results for cause-...
