In many parts of the world forest disturbance regimes have intensified recently, and future
climatic changes are expected to amplify this development further in the coming decades …

Mosses in northern ecosystems are ubiquitous components of plant communities, and
strongly influence nutrient, carbon and water cycling. We use literature review, synthesis and …

Subalpine forests in the northern Rocky Mountains have been resilient to stand-replacing
fires that historically burned at 100-to 300-year intervals. Fire intervals are projected to …

They may influence us as individuals by their encouragement and guidance; they may affect
their community through their untiring commitment to service and the greater good; or they …

Broad-scale fire regime modelling is frequently based on large ecological and (or)
administrative units. However, these units may not capture spatial heterogeneity in fire …

The frequency and severity of forest fires, coupled with changes in spatial and temporal
precipitation and temperature patterns, are likely to severely affect the characteristics of …

Widespread climate change is expected to lead to altered patterns of disturbance, thereby
driving future ecosystem change. This interaction, which is often poorly recognized or …

Wildfire is the dominant disturbance in boreal forests and fire activity is increasing in these
regions. Soil fungal communities are important for plant growth and nutrient cycling postfire …

Boreal ecosystems and their large carbon stocks are strongly shaped by extensive wildfires.
Coupling climate projections with records of area burned during the last 3 decades across …

Fires and their associated carbon and air pollutant emissions have a broad range of
environmental and societal impacts, including negative effects on human health, damage to …
