Fig. S11. Comparison between wildfire probability estimated by the model presented in this manuscript and burn probability modeled by Short et al. (2023). Values from Short et al. (2023) were aggregated from 250 m x 250 m to a 1km x 1km resolution and converted to % (i.e., ...
Climate warming has caused a widespread increase in extreme fire weather, making forest fires longer-lived and larger1,2,3. The average forest fire size in Canada, the USA and Australia has doubled or even tripled in recent decades4,5. In return, forest fires feed back to climate by modu...
Environmental suitability in 1984 was higher in southwestern Alaska, eastern Seward Peninsula, and northern Northwest Territories of Canada, but lower on the northern edge of the North Slope of Alaska and northern Canada and mountainous regions such as the Brooks Range and the Mackenzie Mountains (Fi...
The deep learning model demonstrated a notable level of accuracy in its ability to map wildfire susceptibility, as seen by the significantly high average accuracy scores observed on both the training and validation datasets. The model’s mean AUC on the test dataset provided strong support for thes...

Block and plot locations were randomly assigned in ArcMap software (ESRI, Redlands, CA, USA) before establishment. Some treatments were not completed which resulted in an unbalanced randomized block design within the original study (Reiner et al., 2009). Plots were originally established and ...

ArticleOpen access24 July 2023 Subalpine fires: the roles of vegetation, climate and, ultimately, land uses Article09 January 2016 Main In recent decades, large forest fires have become more frequent, with a doubling to tripling of the mean fire size in the western USA, Canada and eastern Spa...
When fire intervals are shorter than the time required for plants to reproduce, plant populations are threatened by “immaturity risk.” Therefore, understanding how the time between fires influences plants can inform ecosystem management. Quantifying pe
(Crandall et al.2021; Dale and Barrett2023), it will be crucial to establish two-way communication that prepares policymakers, managers, and the public for adaptive changes in policy and practice, including the loss of cultural and ecosystem services provided by disappearing historical fire regimes...
