Global rise in forest fire emissions linked to climate change in the extratropics
Climate change increases fire-favorable weather in forests, but fire trends are also affected
by multiple other controlling factors that are difficult to untangle. We use machine learning to …

The 2019–2020 Australian forest fires are a harbinger of decreased prescribed burning effectiveness under rising extreme conditions
There is an imperative for fire agencies to quantify the potential for prescribed burning to
mitigate risk to life, property and environmental values while facing changing climates. The …
