Trends in global wildfire potential in a changing climate
TL;DR: The trend in global wildfire potential under the climate change due to the greenhouse effect is investigated in this paper, which is measured by the Keetch-Byram Drought Index (KBDI), which is calculated using the observed maximum temperature and precipitation and projected changes at the end of this century (2070-2100) by general circulation models for present and future climate conditions, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI
Wildland fire emissions, carbon, and climate: Wildfire-climate interactions
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focus on the effects of fire-snow feedback mechanism on the Earth's atmosphere and the role of black carbon (BC) in smoke particles in this process.
Journal ArticleDOI
Disturbance and coastal forests: a strategic approach to forest management in hurricane impact zones
TL;DR: In this article, a case study of the effects of recent hurricanes Katrina and Rita on forests of the coastal plain of the northern Gulf of Mexico is presented, focusing on managing the disturbance event, the system after disturbance, and the recovery process followed by modifying initial conditions to reduce vulnerability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Future U.S. wildfire potential trends projected using a dynamically downscaled climate change scenario
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated trends in wildfire potential in the continental United States under a changing climate and measured the fire potential by the Keetch-Byram Drought Index (KBDI), which is determined by daily maximum temperature and precipitation.

TL;DR: In this paper, the first comprehensive set of in situ measurements of turbulence and dynamics in an experimental wildland grass fire should help improve fire models, which can be used to improve fire modeling.
