Fire has a diverse range of impacts on Earth's physical and social systems. Accurate and up
to date information on areas affected by fire is critical to better understand drivers of fire …

Early global estimates of carbon emissions from biomass burning were based on empirical
assumptions of fire return interval in different biomes in the 1980s. Since then, significant …

A locally-adapted multitemporal two-phase burned area (BA) algorithm has been developed
using as inputs Sentinel-2 MSI reflectance measurements in the short and near infrared …

This paper presents the generation of a global burned area map** algorithm using MODIS
hotspots and near-infrared reflectance within ESA's Fire_cci project. The algorithm is based …

There is a clear need for transformative change in the land management and food
production sectors to address the global land challenges of climate change mitigation …

In several biomes, including croplands, wooded savannas, and tropical forests, many small
fires occur each year that are well below the detection limit of the current generation of …

Fundamentals of Satellite Remote Sensing: An Environmental Approach, Third Edition, is a
definitive guide to remote sensing systems that focuses on satellite-based remote sensing …

This paper is the first global study of the extent to which fire determines global vegetation
patterns by preventing ecosystems from achieving the potential height, biomass and …

The Cerrado is one of the world's biodiversity hotspots. In the last 35 years, more than 50%
of its approximately 2 million km2 has been transformed into pasture and agricultural lands …

Heretofore, global Burned Area (BA) products have only been available at coarse spatial
resolution, since most of the current global BA products are produced with the help of active …
