• Improving the LPJmL4-SPITFIRE vegetation-fire model for South America using satellite data.

  Authors:Markus Drüke, Matthias Forkel, Werner von Bloh, Boris Sakschewski, Manoel Cardoso, Mercedes Bustamante, et al.From:Geoscientific Model Development (Vol. 12, Issue 12) Peer-Reviewed

  Dec. 3, 2019383 words Brief article Vegetation fires influence global vegetation distribution, ecosystem functioning, and global carbon cycling. Specifically in South America, changes in fire occurrence together with land-use change accelerate ecosystem...

  Disturbance of vegetation is a critical component of land cover, but is generally poorly constrained in land surface and carbon cycle models. In particular, land-use change and fire can be treated as large-scale...
