Palaeoecological records as a guide for fire management in Killarney National Park, Ireland

Hawthorne, Colombaroli, Mitchell
Climate change is allowing fire to expand into previously unburnt ecosystems and regions. While management policies such as fire suppression have significantly altered their frequency and intensity. To prevent future biodiversity/ecosystem services…

Variations in Holocene fire activity and its controls in the Ningshao Plain, eastern China

Shao, Zhang, Zheng, Gu, Xu, Yang, He, Lu
Extensive fires pose catastrophic threats to both human and natural ecosystems. Understanding the history of fire, particularly Holocene palaeofire activity in densely populated areas, is essential for predicting future fire risks and developing…

Middle- to late-Holocene fire history and the impact on Mediterranean pine and oak forests according to the core RF93-30, central Adriatic Sea

Mercuri, Florenzano, Terenziani, Furia, Dallai, Torri
The high-resolution Adriatic RF93-30 core shows changes in its microcharcoal record, which correlate to terrestrial fires from the last 7000 years. Pollen and microcharcoals were transported by wind and fluvial transport from the sedimentary basin,…

Toward a better understanding of climate and human impacts on late Holocene fire regimes in the Pacific Northwest, USA

Walsh, Duke, Haydon
In order to fully appreciate the role that fire, both natural and anthropogenic, had in shaping pre-Euro-American settlement landscapes in the Pacific Northwest (PNW), it is necessary to develop a more robust method of evaluating paleofire…

Understanding climate and human impacts on historical fire regimes in the PNW

As fire is increasingly used as a restoration and management tool throughout the Pacific Northwest (PNW), it is important to understand the factors influencing historical fire regimes. For ecosystems with long histories of human activity, this…
