DOI: 10.1007/s10661-019-7770-z
Abstract: Greenhouse gas emissions have relevant implications on increases in global temperatures. In turn, forest fires cause significant damage to populations and economic activities, compromising sustainable development and sustainability. However, sometimes, these two phenomena seem to… read more here.
