The size and frequency of large wildfires in western North America have increased in recent
years, a trend climate change is likely to exacerbate. Due to fuel limitations, recently burned …

Despite great concern for drought‐driven forest mortality, the effects of frequent low‐intensity
droughts have been largely overlooked in the boreal forest because of their negligible …

Deforestation, rising temperatures, drought, fire and other ecological disturbances are
reducing forest cover on much of the earth, and compromising the ability of forests to supply …

Forest fires are a key disturbance in boreal forests, and characteristics of fire regimes are
among the most important factors explaining the variation in forest structure and species …

Questions: What were the bog fire patterns and frequencies in two boreal peatlands during
the last 5000 years? What is the nature and time‐scale of post‐fire vegetation successions …

The circumboreal forest encompasses diverse landscape structures, dynamics and forest
age distributions determined by their physical setting, and historical and current disturbance …

This research aims at uncovering the stand-scale Holocene fire history of balsam fir forest
stands from two bioclimatic zones of the boreal forest and assessing the existence of a sub …

Boreal forests have commonly been described as dominated by monospecific postfire
stands that are reburnt well before other ecological process than those occurring …

The hypothesis that changes in fire frequency control the long-term dynamics of boreal
forests is tested on the basis of paleodata. Sites with different wildfire histories at the …

We used macrofossil analyses to reconstruct the long-term development of plant
assemblages and the history of fire events in a bog in southern Québec which was partly …
