Fire-prone invasive grasses create novel ecosystem threats by increasing fine-fuel loads
and continuity, which can alter fire regimes. While the existence of an invasive grass-fire …

In this review, we discuss current research on forest carbon risk from natural disturbance
under climate change for the United States, with emphasis on advancements in analytical …

Warming trends are altering fire regimes globally, potentially impacting on the long-term
persistence of some ecosystems. However, we still lack clear understanding of how climatic …

Forests are an important natural resource and are instrumental in sustaining environmental
sustainability. Burning biomass in forests results in greenhouse gas emissions, many of …

This study presents a comparative analysis of four Machine Learning (ML) models used to
map wildfire susceptibility on Hawaiʻi Island, Hawaiʻi. Extreme Gradient Boosting …

As the most remote archipelago in the world, the Hawaiian Islands are home to a highly
endemic and disharmonic biota that has fascinated biologists for centuries. Forests are the …

Variations in global patterns of burning and fire regimes are relatively well measured,
however, the degree of influence of the complex suite of biophysical and human drivers of …

Wildfire is one of the most significant environmental challenges and causing damage to
ecosystems, habitats, infrastructure and especially human lives. Thus, spatial assessment of …

This study developed three hybrid light gradient boosting machine (LightGBM) models using
novel metaheuristic algorithms (golden jackal optimization [GJO], the pelican optimization …

Wildfire is a major concern worldwide and particularly in Australia. The 2019–2020 wildfires
in Australia became historically significant as they were widespread and extremely severe …
