With the rapid expansion of transport infrastructure into complex mountainous terrain, bridge-tunnel connecting sections (BTCSs) have emerged as a common yet distinct configuration characterized by high bridge-to-tunnel ...

En los ecosistemas de montaña, la distribución de la vegetación a lo largo del gradiente altitudinal fue tradicionalmente interpretada en términos de la temperatura decreciente desde la base hacia arriba; pero los fu...

Wildfires are natural hazards that threaten ecosystems, communities, and economies, and they have shown a significant increase in frequency and intensity in recent years. Accurate wildfire spread prediction is critical f...

ABSTRACT The fire frequency in the Amazon increased rapidly after the 1990s due to deforestation and forest degradation, and it is expected to increase in response to climate change. We analyzed the fire occurrence and a...

Abstract Early small fires in coal mines are of critical importance for mine safety, as most incidents begin as small fire sources. These fires essentially constitute a task of small-object detection. Detecting such targ...

In response to the existing problems in the temperature monitoring of boreholes in high-temperature fire areas of open-pit coal mines, this study proposed an intelligent temperature monitoring and early warning system by...

Forest fires in the Amazon, particularly in protected areas, pose significant challenges related to CO _2 emissions and deforestation. This study aimed to evaluate fire foci and their driving factors in the Jamanxim Nati...

Fighting fires is a very risky job, where loss of life is a real possibility. Proper training is essential. Several firemen academies offer courses and programs whose goal is to enhance the ability of fire and emergency ...

Stylosanthes hippocampoides, a native legume forage species, was first studied by our research team in 2016 to assess genetic variability in natural populations in northeastern Argentina. Recurrent fires in the following...

Wildfires are among the most destructive natural disasters and pose significant risks to ecosystems, infrastructure, and human lives. This study focuses on wildfire susceptibility mapping in Los Angeles County, a region ...

Abstract The increasing number of Internet of Things (IoT) devices demands a rigid and adaptive routing methodologies to ensure the reliable communication especially for the low-power and lossy networks. The Routing Prot...

The ability of communities or ecosystems to recover their structure and function after a disturbance is known as resilience. According to different views, resilience can be influenced by the resource-use strategies of th...

The study summarizes and analyzes data on forest litter properties in the larch forests of the Russian Far East, which are subject to frequent fire disturbances. Based on a representative database, spatial variability pa...

ABSTRACT Wildland fires can be responsible for negative impacts on the environment, causing damage to the fauna and flora and increasing the release of greenhouse gases. In the state of Amazonas, wildland fires represent...

In recent decades, the global debate on gun control has been prominent, with many countries adopting more restrictive policies. Brazil followed this trend by implementing stringent measures in 2003; however, the presiden...

Given the substantial contribution of coal-fired power generation to environmental pollution in South Korea, evaluating the effectiveness of policies in the electric power sector is essential. The South Korean government...

In 2023, Canada experienced its most severe wildfire season on record, burning over 7.8 million hectares and releasing unprecedented carbon emissions surpassing the country’s previous record by several fold. These fire...

Abstract Magnetic reconnection hosts regions of enhanced temperature anisotropy that could excite various kinetic instabilities and waves. However, the relation between electron firehose instability and the leading edge ...

Forest fires have exhibited an escalating trend in both frequency and intensity globally, with major and catastrophic events causing significant damage to forest resources, human lives, and property. Timely and accurate ...

The article analyses the functionality of the mobile CBRNE laboratory of the State Fire Service in the context of applicable legal regulations and operational assumptions of the National Firefighting and Rescue System. T...

We employ the high-redshift suite of FIRE-2 cosmological hydrodynamic zoom-in simulations to investigate the evolution of gas-phase metallicity radial gradients in galaxies in the epoch of reionization (EOR). Our sample ...

Among the many natural disturbances that affect Canada's boreal and temperate forest biomes, wildfire has the greatest impact on forest productivity, landscape structure, timber supply and greenhouse gas emissions. Fire ...

As the nexus between aviation, fire science, and emergency management becomes increasingly more complex, technology can be used to augment training and avoid risk while maintaining authenticity with situational reality. ...
