Wildland fires dramatically affect forest ecosystems, altering the loss of their biodiversity and
their sustainability. In addition, they have a strong impact on the global carbon balance and …

Fire is a keystone process in many ecosystems of western North America. Severe fires kill
and consume large amounts of above‐and belowground biomass and affect soils, resulting …

The obtention of wall-to-wall fire severity estimates through reliable remote sensing-based
techniques that align with management needs is a critical factor in post-fire decision-making …

As a primary disturbance agent, fire significantly influences local processes and services of
forest ecosystems. Although a variety of remote sensing based approaches have been …

Burned area and burn severity are the two most commonly used remote-sensing metrics for
characterizing the effects of wildfire activity. Over the past decade, many new remote …

The risk and damage of wildfires have been increasing due to various reasons including
climate change, and the Republic of Korea is no exception to this situation. Burned area …

Numerous theoretical and empirical studies have shown that wildfire activity (eg, area
burned) at regional to global scales may be limited at the extremes of environmental …

Intensification of cattle ranching has the potential to reduce deforestation rates in the
Brazilian Amazon by decreasing the demand for new agricultural land. Explicit spatial …

There is a widespread view among land managers and others that the protected status of
many forestlands in the western United States corresponds with higher fire severity levels …

The aim of our study was to explore the spectral properties of fire-scorched (burned) and
non fire-scorched (vegetation) areas, as well as areas with different burn/vegetation ratios …
