Wildfires are uncontrolled combustion events occurring in the natural environment (forest,
grassland, or peatland). The frequency and size of these fires are expected to increase …

Creeping fire spread under opposed airflow is a classic fundamental fire research problem
involving heat transfer, fluid dynamics, chemical kinetics, and is strongly dependent on …

Boreal peatlands are increasingly vulnerable to wildfires as climate change continues
accelerating. Fires consume substantial quantities of organic soils and rapidly transfer large …

Smoldering is the slow, low-temperature, and flameless combustion phenomenon in porous
fuels. Smoldering is different from flaming regarding the chemical and transport processes …

Paleo-wildfires are of great significance in the study of paleomire ecosystems. The products
of such fires preserved in paleomires can provide detailed information for the reconstruction …

Peatlands are potent landscape sinks of natural and industrial toxic metals and metalloids
(TMMs) but the long-term sequestration of TMMs in peatlands is at increasing risk due to …

Background Peatlands are becoming more vulnerable to smouldering fires, driven by
climate change and human activities. Aims This work explores the persistent burning …

Smoldering is the slow, low-temperature, and flameless burning of porous fuel and one of
the most persistent types of combustion phenomena. The influence of cooling on the …

Boreal peatlands provide critical global and regional ecosystem functions including climate
regulation and nutrient and water retention. Wildfire represents the largest disturbance to …

Wood is one of the longest‐standing and sustainable construction and building materials,
and has gained a new renaissance for high‐rise buildings to achieve global carbon …
