Recent wildfire outbreaks around the world have prompted concern that climate change is
increasing fire incidence, threatening human livelihood and biodiversity, and perpetuating …

Abstract Terrestrial ecosystems release~ 106–130 PgC yr–1 into the atmosphere through
respiration, counterbalancing photosynthetic carbon uptake and determining the strength of …

It is unequivocal that the increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4)
and nitrous oxide (N2O) since the pre-industrial period are caused by human activities. The …

Abiotic forest disturbances are an important driver of ecosystem dynamics. In Europe, storms
and fires have been identified as the most important abiotic disturbances in the recent past …

Long-term records of burned area are needed to understand wildfire dynamics, assess fire
impacts on ecosystems and air quality, and improve fire forecasts. Here we fuse multiple …

The year 2022 featured an unprecedented hot summer that has attracted worldwide
attention. Abnormal warming spread over most of the Eurasian continent and North America …

Fire is an integral component of ecosystems globally and a tool that humans have
harnessed for millennia. Altered fire regimes are a fundamental cause and consequence of …

Land use/cover change (LUCC) is the primary source of carbon storage changes in the
ecosystem. Up to now, there are few studies about the impacts and driving mechanisms of …

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 …

The determinants of fire-driven changes in soil organic carbon (SOC) across broad
environmental gradients remains unclear, especially in global drylands. Here we combined …
