Predicting Persistent Forest Fire Refugia Using Machine Learning Models with Topographic, Microclimate, and Surface Wind Variables
Persistent forest fire refugia are areas within fire-prone landscapes that remain fire-free over long periods of time and are crucial for ecosystem resilience. Modelling to develop maps of these refugia is key to informing fire and land use management. We predict persistent forest fire refugia using variables linked to the fire triangle (aspect, slope, elevation, topographic wetness, convergence and roughness, solar irradiation, temperature, surf…
Drivers of forest structure and biomass along a climatic gradient in the Soutpansberg, South Africa
Forest structure plays a key role for providing different ecosystem services in rural regions worldwide. In forests and woodlands of southern Africa, there is a lack of quantitative information on prevailing structures, their abiotic and biotic drivers, as well as how stand characteristics will be affected by climate change. In this study, we established permanent research plots in mature developing stages of representative forests and woodlands …

Key drivers of LULCC in co-managed and governmentmanaged forest reserves in Malawi (1999–2018)
Interventions through co-management (CM) and government-management (GM) for forest reserves can mitigate degradation and deforestation. Few studies have investigated the driving forces of Land Use/Cover Change (LULCC) using Remote sensing and socioeconomic data to assess the impact of management strategies on woodlands. This study investigated factors influencing LULCC in two co-managed and two governmentmanaged forest reserves (FR) between 1999 …
Perceptions of Climate Variability and Pest–Disease Incidence on Crops and Adaptive Forest–Agricultural Practices
The article examines the influence of local perceptions of climate variability and pest–disease incidence on crops and its management and on adaptive forest–agricultural practices. The study was conducted in the humid forest of S outhern C ameroon along a resource use intensification and population gradient using a semi‐structured questionnaire administrated to farmers. The results showed that the level of severity of crops–pests incidence was pe…
