We review science‐based adaptation strategies for western North American (wNA) forests
that include restoring active fire regimes and fostering resilient structure and composition of …

Mega‐fires are often defined according to their size and intensity but are more accurately
described by their socioeconomic impacts. Three factors–climate change, fire exclusion, and …

During the last decades, climate and land use changes led to an increased prevalence of
megafires in Mediterranean-type climate regions (MCRs). Here, we argue that current …

The realm of wildland fire science encompasses both wild and prescribed fires. Most of the
research in the broader field has focused on wildfires, however, despite the prevalence of …

Across the globe, rising temperatures and altered precipitation patterns have caused
persistent regional droughts, lengthened fire seasons, and increased the number of weather …

The worldwide “wildfire” problem is headlined by the loss of human lives and homes, but it

Many forest types globally have been subject to an increase in the frequency of, and area
burnt by, high‐severity wildfire. Here we explore the role that previous disturbance has …

Forest wildfire impact is widely believed to increase with time since disturbance, presenting
a dilemma for the persistence of fire‐sensitive species. However, in south‐western Australia …
