Wildfires are extreme events associated with weather, climate, and environment and have been increasing globally in frequency, burn season length, and burned area. It is of great interest to understand the impacts of wildfires on severe convective storms through releasing heat and aerosols into the ...
However, despite these positive effects, wildfires often have a negative impact on the environment and society, for example, through increased forest loss, carbon emissions, and smoke exposure13,14. Moreover, they contribute to climate warming by reinforcing a positive feedback loop15,16. In ...

0 or 1 fire). Logistic regression allowed for the estimation of the annual probability of wildfire. We used a logit link function. Our model implicitly incorporated spatial and temporal effects of vegetation
Wildfire can cause significant adverse impacts to society and the environment. Weather and climate play an important role in modulating wildfire activity. We explore the joint occurrence of global fire weather and meteorological drought using a compound events framework. We show that, for much of the...
Extreme wildfires damage the environment, people's health and the economy. They've doubled in the last 20 years, new study shows.
wildfires have been associated with a number of stress-related effects, including changes in infant feeding practices and high rates of psychiatric symptoms [60]. The mental health effects can be affected by personal characteristics of the children, social characteristics of the environment and the de...
The effects of wildfires don't stay around only for the fire season. Burn scars and subsequent rain have resulted in mudslides that have also caused the loss of life and severely impacted the environment and neighborhoods. Wildfire Origin and Cause Investigation Understanding the cause and plotting...
Native versus exotic community patterns across three scales: Roles of competition, environment and incomplete invasion Three fundamental, interrelated questions in invasion ecology are: (1) to what extent do exotic species outcompete natives; (2) are native and exotic commu...

educated inference into palaeoenvironmental characteristics and their interaction with fire. This is further emphasised by PCA ordination of calorimetric and Raman data, presented here (Fig.4b), indicating inherent, direct relationships (though non-significant at this time) between Raman parameters, ...
