The missing fire: quantifying human exclusion of wildfire in Pacific Northwest forests, USA
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Ecosphere"
DOI: 10.1002/ecs2.2702
Abstract: Western U.S. wildfire area burned has increased dramatically over the last half‐century. How contemporary extent and severity of wildfires compare to the pre‐settlement patterns to which ecosystems are adapted is debated. We compared large wildfires… read more here.

Long-term, fire-induced changes in habitat structure and microclimate affect Cerrado lizard communities
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Biodiversity and Conservation"
DOI: 10.1007/s10531-019-01892-8
Abstract: Fire transforms the structure of natural habitats and, consequently, modifies microclimates affecting ectotherm organisms that are particularly susceptible to changes in the thermal environment. Nevertheless, the effects of fire-induced microclimatic shifts upon natural populations have… read more here.

A landscape model of variable social-ecological fire regimes
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Ecological Modelling"
DOI: 10.1016/j.ecolmodel.2019.03.022
Abstract: Abstract Fire regimes are now recognized as the product of social processes whereby fire on any landscape is the product of human-generated drivers: climate change, historical patterns of vegetation manipulation, invasive species, active fire suppression,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1029/2022ef003182
Abstract: Wildland fire is expected to increase in response to global warming, yet little is known about future changes to fire regimes in Europe. Here, we developed a pyrogeography based on statistical fire models to better… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/aec.12437
Abstract: Forest ecosystems and their associated natural, cultural and economic values are highly vulnerable to climate driven changes in fire regimes. A detailed knowledge of forest ecosystem responses to altered fire regimes is a necessary underpinning… read more here.

Madagascar's fire regimes challenge global assumptions about landscape degradation
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Global Change Biology"
DOI: 10.1111/gcb.16206
Abstract: Narratives of landscape degradation are often linked to unsustainable fire use by local communities. Madagascar is a case in point: the island is considered globally exceptional, with its remarkable endemic biodiversity viewed as threatened by… read more here.

The fuel–climate–fire conundrum: How will fire regimes change in temperate eucalypt forests under climate change?
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Global Change Biology"
DOI: 10.1111/gcb.16283
Abstract: Fire regimes are changing across the globe in response to complex interactions between climate, fuel, and fire across space and time. Despite these complex interactions, research into predicting fire regime change is often unidimensional, typically… read more here.
