Biomass Burning on the Rise Again

Posted by By admin June 3, 2016Posted inAnalyses, GCD v3, Papers
Levels of biomass burning in parts of the world are now higher than at any time in the past 22,000 years, according to our most recent fire history reconstructions from the…

Circum-Mediterranean fire activity and climate changes during the mid-Holocene environmental transition (8500-2500 cal. BP) (Vannière et al. 2011)

Posted by By admin November 16, 2013Posted inAnalyses, GCD v3
A mid- to late-Holocene synthesis of fire activity from the Mediterranean basin explores the linkages among fire, climate variability and seasonality through several climatic and ecological transitions. Regional fire histories…

Long-term perspective on wildfires in the western USA (Marlon et al. 2012)

Posted by By admin November 16, 2012Posted inAnalyses, GCD v3
Understanding the causes and consequences of wildfires in forests of the western United States requires integrated information about fire, climate changes, and human activity on multiple temporal scales. We use…

16th Century burning decline in the Americas: Population collapse or climate change? (Power et al. 2012)

Posted by By admin November 16, 2012Posted inAnalyses, GCD v3
During the Holocene, the last 11,000 years, climate, vegetation, and likely, humans have been key controls to changing fire regimes in the Americas. A long-accepted paradigm is that of the 'noble…

Global biomass burning: a synthesis and review of Holocene paleofire records and their controls (Marlon et al. 2012)

Global biomass burning: a synthesis and review of Holocene paleofire records and their controls (Marlon et al. 2012)

Posted by By admin November 16, 2012Posted inAnalyses, GCD v3No Comments
We synthesize existing sedimentary charcoal records to reconstruct Holocene fire history at regional, continental and global scales. The reconstructions are compared with the two potential controls of burning at these…

Late Quaternary fire regimes of Australasia (Mooney 2011)

Posted by By admin November 16, 2011Posted inAnalyses, GCD v3
We have compiled 223 sedimentary charcoal records from Australasia in order to examine the temporal and spatial variability of fire regimes during the Late Quaternary. While some of these records…
