Trends in arctic fires are thought to be generally increasing; however, fire mapping across the region is far from comprehensive or systematic. We developed a new detection workflow and built a dataset of unrecorded tundra fires in Canada using Landsat data. We built a reference dataset of ...

Season-t0-date snowfall across the U.S. is up +46% over last year,but still 3rd least in 40 years. The bigger winner so far this Winter is the interior Northeast where it's been the snowiest in 4 years. U.S. weekly snowfall trendsshow the 5-week December having +140% more snow ...
Deforestation and drainage has made Indonesian peatlands susceptible to burning. Large fires occur regularly, destroying agricultural crops and forest, emitting large amounts of CO2and air pollutants, resulting in adverse health effects. In order to reduce fire, the Indonesian government has committed t...

Our results are based on an algorithm with which we detect overwintering fires in Alaska, USA, and the Northwest Territories, Canada, using field and remote sensing datasets. Between 2002 and 2018, overwintering fires were responsible for 0.8 per cent of the total burned area; however, in ...
Age-dependency, climate, and environmental controls of recent tree growth trends at subarctic and alpine treelines of trees at and near treeline was investigated in the western Mackenzie Mountains, Northwest Territories, and the Hudson Bay Lowlands of northern Manitoba. ...

2012). At the same time, overall trends are closely linked to weather conditions (Rogelj et al. 2012), and climatic, socio-economic, and landscape fire drivers should be considered together to better understand inter-annual variations in burned areas (Costa et al. 2010). A substantial ...
extent is much larger in dry (El Niño) years. We examine the health effects of long-term exposure to fine particles (PM2.5) from all types of peatland fires (including the burning of above and below ground biomass) in Sumatra and Kalimantan, where most peatland fires in Indonesia take ...
