Winter climate preconditioning of summer vegetation extremes in the Northern Hemisphere
The impact of the spring climate on the Northern Hemisphere’s summer vegetation activity and extremes has been extensively researched, but less attention has been devoted to whether and how the winter climate may additionally influence vegetation extremes in the summer. Here, we provide insights into the influence of winter temperature and precipitation on summer vegetation extremes in the Northern Hemisphere. To do this, we identify positive and…
Joining forces to fight wildfires: Science and management in a protected area of Pantanal, Brazil
In 2020, the world’s largest continuous stretch of wetlands, the Pantanal in South America, recorded its most catastrophic fire season of the last two decades, resulting in severe economic, ecological and health consequences. Regional environmental institutions and communities are taking measures to protect their unique ecosystem, as is the case of the Reserva Particular do Patrimônio Natural (RPPN) Sesc Pantanal, a national protected area. The r…
Assessing the role of compound drought and heatwave events on unprecedented 2020 wildfires in the Pantanal
The year 2020 had the most catastrophic fire season over the last two decades in the Pantanal, which led to outstanding environmental impacts. Indeed, much of the Pantanal has been affected by severe dry conditions since 2019, with evidence of the 2020’s drought being the most extreme and widespread ever recorded in the last 70 years. Although it is unquestionable that this mega-drought contributed significantly to the increase of fire risk, so f…
