In many parts of the world forest disturbance regimes have intensified recently, and future
climatic changes are expected to amplify this development further in the coming decades …

Prior research suggests that Indigenous fire management buffers climate influences on
wildfires, but it is unclear whether these benefits accrue across geographic scales. We use a …

Most of the fire history research conducted in the past century has focused on case studies
and local-scale assessments of pattern and process, with an emphasis on describing typical …

In recent decades fire size and severity have been increasing in high elevation forests of the
American Southwest. Ecological outcomes of these increases are difficult to gauge without …

Fire regimes have changed dramatically in most dry woodlands and forests of the American
Southwest from frequent surface fires prior to Euro-American settlement, to fire suppression …

Insects, diseases, fire and drought and other disturbances associated with global climate
change contribute to forest decline and mortality in many parts of the world. Forest decline …

Ecological research on organism-environment interactions has developed asymmetrically.
Modulation of organisms by the environment has received much attention, while theoretical …

Long-term antecedent climate conditions are often overlooked as important drivers of
wildfire variability. Fuel moisture levels and fine-fuel productivity are controlled by variability …

Fire histories contribute important information to contemporary fire planning, however, our
knowledge is not comprehensive geographically. We evaluated the influence of topography …

The influence of fire and climate events on age structure of different species was examined
in old-growth mixed conifer in the southern Sierra Nevada. Within a 48-ha stem-mapped …
