DOI: 10.1016/j.landusepol.2019.104394

Abstract: Abstract Regulation of building standards and residential development practices in the wildland-urban interface (WUI) is increasingly advocated as a possible avenue for wildfire risk reduction. However, many documented instances of successful wildfire adaptation occur in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1021/acs.est.3c08446

Abstract: Wildfires at the wildland-urban interface (WUI) are increasing in frequency and intensity, driven by climate change and anthropogenic ignitions. Few studies have characterized the variability in the metal content in ash generated from burned structures… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/jofore/fvaa042

Abstract: This article identifies specific social characteristics in two wildland urban interface communities that may have significant impacts on the ability of those communities to adapt to wildfire. Researchers used a mixed-methods approach to triangulate results… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2017 at "Sustainability"

DOI: 10.3390/su9112146

Abstract: Urbanisation is a global trend rapidly transforming the biophysical and socioeconomic structures of metropolitan areas. To better understand (and perhaps control) these processes, more interdisciplinary research must be dedicated to the rural–urban interface. This also… read more here.

DOI: 10.5194/nhess-24-1521-2024

Abstract: Abstract. Wildland–urban interface (WUI) regions are particularly vulnerable to wildfires due to their proximity to both nature and urban developments, posing significant risks to lives and property. To enhance our understanding of the risk profiles in… read more here.
