Aim Megafire events generate immediate concern for wildlife and human well‐being, but
their broader ecological impacts likely extend beyond individual species and single fire …

Geostationary and polar-orbiting remote sensors have different opportunities to observe
wildfires. While polar-orbiting sensors have been favoured in wildfire observations …

Background Increasing occurrence of megafires and wildfires is threatening the integrity of
many natural systems and sustainability of the ecosystem services they provide. For …

There is now considerable evidence that, as the climate continues to warm, bushfires are
becoming more common and severe, particularly in regions such as south‐eastern …

Peatlands cover about 3% of the Earth's land surface, but are the largest terrestrial carbon
store and are important for freshwater storage. In Australia, nationally protected peatlands …

Burn severity has been widely studied. Typical approaches use spectral differencing indices
from remotely sensed data to extrapolate in-situ severity assessments. Next generation …

Background Climatic events can have rapid and widespread environmental impacts on
peatlands. This is concerning because peatlands are restricted environments in Australia …

Bushfires are a natural component of the ecology of many landscapes, but megafires such
as those experienced in Australia between July 2019 and April 2020 have substantial direct …

Background: As fire regimes continue to evolve in response to climate change,
understanding how fire characteristics have responded to changes in the recent past is vital …

Background We compared estimates of Fire Radiative Power (FRP) from sensors onboard
geostationary Himawari-8 (BRIGHT_AHI) and polar-orbiting TERRA/AQUA …
