Groundwater has been known as the second largest freshwater storage in the world,
following surface water. Over the years, groundwater has already been under overwhelming …

Prescribed fires are one of the most effective tools to reduce the risk of wildfires but this
treatment may negatively affect the hydrological and erosive response of soil, with …

Forest fires are an important disturbance factor in forest ecosystems, and obviously change
the soil environment. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, as a medium and bridge between …

The medium-and long-term studies about the effectiveness of post-fire management
techniques on soil and plant ecology are scarce, although the effects of wildfire and …

The use of low-severity prescribed fires has been increasingly promoted to reduce the
impacts from high-severity wildfires and maintain ecosystem resilience. However, the effects …

Climate change may increase the overall susceptibility of peatlands to fire. Smoldering fires
in peatlands can cause substantial emissions of greenhouse gases. It is, however, less clear …

Prescribed burning may induce erosion and change many physico-chemical properties of
forest soils and these may vary with different burn severity conditions. Few studies have …

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 …

To tackle the problem of missed detections in long-range detection scenarios caused by the
small size of forest fire targets, initiatives have been undertaken to enhance the feature …

In the Lubumbashi charcoal production basin (LCPB) in Southeastern DR Congo,
agricultural and charcoal production activities regularly give rise to fires that lead to …
