Exacerbated fires in Mediterranean Europe due to anthropogenic warming projected with non-stationary climate-fire models
The observed trend towards warmer and drier conditions in southern Europe is projected to
continue in the next decades, possibly leading to increased risk of large fires. However, an …

On the key role of droughts in the dynamics of summer fires in Mediterranean Europe
Summer fires frequently rage across Mediterranean Europe, often intensified by high
temperatures and droughts. According to the state-of-the-art regional fire risk projections, in …

[HTML][HTML] Vulnerability of European ecosystems to two compound dry and hot summers in 2018 and 2019
In 2018 and 2019, central Europe was affected by two consecutive extreme dry and hot
summers (DH18 and DH19). The DH18 event had severe impacts on ecosystems and likely …
