Fire is one of the dominant disturbances in forests that widely impacts the ecology,
environment, and socioeconomics of nations across the globe. In view of setting priorities of …

Wildfires affect and change the burned sites' condition, functionality, and ecosystem
services. Altered hydrologic processes, such as runoff, increased streamflows, and sediment …

It is well known that forest fires affect physico-chemical characteristics of soils. However, few
investigations have explored the effects of human-caused fires on soil erosion processes …

Forest fires pose significant environmental challenges globally, profoundly affecting
watershed hydrology. As human activities increase and climate change exacerbates, the …

Uncertainty of physical models is caused by the model's complexity as well as the accuracy
of input variables. In present study, an error update model was developed based on artificial …

Sparsely vegetated badlands are loci of intense erosion that is sufficiently rapid to have
observable effects on human timescales. Characterizing and understanding the physical …

Forest fires in the western US are increasing in size and intensity, partly due to overstocked
forests, a legacy of fire exclusion. Forest restoration can mitigate fire severity and improve …

This study investigates the changes caused by forest fires and the following recovery
processes, targeting four forest fire sites in Korea. The time series of two vegetation indices …

Sediment and nutrient pollution in water bodies is threatening human health and the
ecosystem, due to rapid land use changes and improper agricultural practices. The impact of …

Forests reduce soil erosion and prevent drought, wind, and other natural disasters. Forest
fires, which threaten millions of hectares of forest area yearly, destroy these precious …
