Background: Mobile ad hoc networks have piqued researchers’ interest in various applications, including forest fire detection. Because of the massive losses caused by this disaster, forest fires necessitate regular monitoring, good communication, and...
Alaska Reference Database
The Alaska Reference Database originated as the standalone Alaska Fire Effects Reference Database, a ProCite reference database maintained by former BLM-Alaska Fire Service Fire Ecologist Randi Jandt. It was expanded under a Joint Fire Science Program grant for the FIREHouse project (The Northwest and Alaska Fire Research Clearinghouse). It is now maintained by the Alaska Fire Science Consortium and FRAMES, and is hosted through the FRAMES Resource Catalog. The database provides a listing of fire research publications relevant to Alaska and a venue for sharing unpublished agency reports and works in progress that are not normally found in the published literature.
Wildfire poses a significant threat and is considered a severe natural disaster, which endangers forest resources, wildlife, and human livelihoods. In recent times, there has been an increase in the number of wildfire incidents, and both human...
Wildfire is a growing concern worldwide with significant impacts on human lives and the environment. This study aimed to provide an overview of the current trends and research gaps in wildfire prediction by conducting a bibliometric analysis of papers...
Wildfires are one of the most hazardous natural disasters in Australia in terms of fatalities, property damage and financial losses. Events of catastrophic wildfires are recorded across the world including in the United States and Canada. Failures...
This report summarizes the National Park Service Interior Region 11 (Alaska) Fire Ecology Program activities, monitoring and research results, and provides a list of outreach/publications completed in 2022. It features studies in Denali National Park...
Due to the harm forest fires cause to the environment and the economy as they occur more frequently around the world, early fire prediction and detection are necessary. To anticipate and discover forest fires, several technologies and techniques were...
Vegetation fire frequently occurs globally and produces two types of water-soluble organic carbon (WSOC) including black carbon WSOC (BC-WSOC) and smoke-WSOC, they will eventually enter the surface environment (soil and water) and participate in the...
Globally, fire regimes are undergoing significant changes due to anthropogenic activities and climate change. In some regions, prescribed fire is being reintroduced to management, often after decades of suppression, and wildfires are increasing in...
Changes in soil carbon (C) pools driven by fire in forest ecosystems remain equivocal, especially at a global scale. In this study we analyzed data from 232 studies consisting of 1702 observations to investigate whether ecosystem type, climate zone,...
Volcanic and wildfire events between 2014 and 2022 injected ∼3.2 Tg of sulfur dioxide and 0.8 Tg of smoke aerosols into the stratosphere. With injections at higher altitudes and lower latitudes, the simulated stratospheric lifetime of the 2014-2022...
