  1. 1. Uncovering climate and human signals in near-millennium annual fire chronology for Norrbotten county, Northern Sweden

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Southern Swedish Forest Research Centre

    Författare :Agnieszka Jabłońska; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Dendrochronology; forest fire history; climate; human impact; boreal forests;

    Sammanfattning : Forest fire is one of the major factors driving the dynamics of the boreal forest. Climate has the most significant contribution in shaping the fire occurrence, its spatial extent and severity. Anthropogenic activities have contributed to variation in fire activity, although the timing and the scale of the human impact are still heavily debated. LÄS MER
