ES 6: 3-5 Replace “It is unequivocal that emissions of the well-mixed greenhouse gases
(GHG) carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2 O) from human activities …

Satellites have detected a global decline in burned area of grassland, coincident with a
small increase in burned forest area. These contrasting trends have been reported in earlier …

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 …

Fire behaviour is changing in many regions worldwide. However, nonlinear interactions
between fire weather, fuel, land use, management and ignitions have impeded formal …

Recent extreme wildfire seasons in several regions have been associated with exceptionally
hot, dry conditions, made more probable by climate change. Much research has focused on …

Forest fires are emitting substantial amounts of greenhouse gases and particulate matter
into the atmosphere than assumed in state climate targets. It can play an important role in …

Climate models have been key for assessing the impact of climate change and simulating
future climate scenarios. The machine learning (ML) community has taken an increased …

Global fire-vegetation models are widely used to assess impacts of environmental change
