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 Spain, in response to factors such as climate warming, fuel management and rural depopulation4,5,16. Larger fires have been associated wit...

and decreasing diseases and pests. Some plant species even require fire for their seeds to germinate. In many regions that have historically experienced forest fires, such as forested areas of the westernUnited States, years of fire exclusion and suppression in the 19th and 20th centuries allowed ...

The move is partly aimed at protecting eco-system, restoring peatland after forest fires, and reducing emissions resulted from forest fires during deforestation. President Joko Widodo has inked a presidential instruction on the extension of the moratorium. ...
This study investigates the spatial mosaic of stand ages produced by high-intensity stand-replacing fires in the mixed-wood boreal forest of western Canada. A high-resolution, accurately dated, time-since-fire map for a large (3461 km(2)) contiguous area is used to produce the landscape ...
Fires can result in dramatic changes to carbon (C) stocks and can restructure plant and microbial communities, with long-lasting effects on ecosystem functions. We investigated wildfire effects on soil microbial communities (bacteria and fungi) in an extreme fire season in the northwestern Canadian ...
The aim of the present study was to determine tree carbon in Ilunde forest after consecutive exposure to frequent fires for 10 years. A fire suppressed forest of Kitwe was used as a control. Fire frequency of Ilunde forest was obtained from published Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer ...
