Heterogeneous response of fire regime to climate changes is projected for eastern Canada with some areas (e.g., western Quebec) experiencing very small alterations while others (e.g., southeastern Ontario) are facing great shifts. Overall, models predicted a 2.2- and 2.4-fold increase in the ...
A look at the history of forest fires and drought in Canada and Alaska finds three striking trends emerging over forty years. Boreal Tree Growth Slows as Climate Warms It appears that climatic warming in boreal forests has pushed many trees beyond the limits of their optimal growing conditions....
Forest degradation is a global phenomenon and while being an important indicator and precursor to further forest loss, carbon emissions due to degradation should also be accounted for in national reporting within the frame of UN REDD+. At regional to country scales, methods have been progressively ...

Intelligent unmanned autonomous systems are some of the most important applications of artificial intelligence (AI). The development of such systems can si
They live mostly in the dry, open savannas, though they can also be found in woodlands. The hornbill initiates breeding in response to rainfall in the arid western parts of its southern African range. They feed on insects, spiders and scorpions as well as seeds that they find on the grou...
One of them was the largest recorded forest fire in Australian history. Victoria had a season with the highest number of fires, area burned, and second highest numbers of houses lost for the same period. SA had the highest number of houses lost in the last 20 years. Black Summer fires ...
In recent years, ecology has become a source of great interest to many people who live in the United States and Canada. The interest has been increasing because some experts feel that we are destroying the land on which we live. They also feel that we can stop this destruction by being ...
which includes some large wetland complexes such as the Hudson Bay Lowlands in Canada and the southern part of the West Siberian lowlands, are about twice as large as for the Arctic zone. There is no statistically significant trend in emissions from the Boreal zone in contrast to Thompson et ...
