  1. 1. Post-Fire Vegetation Recovery Monitoring using MODIS Time Series: A Case Study in California

    Kandidat-uppsats, KTH/Geoinformatik

    Författare :Julia Edje; [2023]
    Nyckelord :vegetation recovery; MODIS; HRT; EVI; fire; burn severity; land cover; climate zone; California;

    Sammanfattning : Human-caused forest fires have increased in magnitude and frequency, affecting global vegetation and requiring a re-evaluation of fire regimes. Changing fire regimes have led to reduced burned areas in fire- dependent ecosystems and increased areas in fire-independent ecosystems, resulting in changes in land cover and posing a threat to native plant communities.

  2. 2. To clear-cut or not to clear-cut; Cost-benefit analyses of post-fire management approaches in the Ljusdal fire-complex

    Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Centrum för miljö- och klimatvetenskap (CEC)

    Författare :Bella Blomqvist; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Clear-cut forestry; Continous cover forestry; Nature reserve; Cost-benefit analysis; Wildfires; Sweden; Ljusdal; Post-fire management; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Wildfires causes natural disturbances to ecosystems which can have potentially damaging results for ecosystem services and economic income from timber production. The post-fire management approach can be essential for the environmental work regarding the recovery of ecosystems and maintaining ecosystem services. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Assessing the impact of post-fire restoration interventions using spectral vegetation indices: A case study in El Bruc, Spain

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Författare :Bernat Dorado Guerrero; [2022]
    Nyckelord :geography; GIS; restoration intervention; drylands; monitoring; BACI; spectral vegetation indices; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Ecological restoration has become an increasingly used practice to revert degraded land and mitigate the effects of extreme events in vulnerable biomes such as drylands. Methods to improve the assessment of these restoration interventions are essential to ensure their success, optimize resources and identify improvement aspects for future interventions. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Using NDVI Time-Series to Examine Post-fire Vegetation Recovery in California

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Författare :Viktor Wu; [2022]
    Nyckelord :fire; California; NDVI; land cover; vegetation; post-fire recovery;

    Sammanfattning : Over the past couple of decades, fires have experienced changes on a global scale. These changing fire regimes point to an alarming direction where fire-dependent ecosystems are experiencing a decline in burned area, while fire-independent ecosystems are experiencing an increase.

  5. 5. Post-fire community changes in peatland dwelling beetles : A before-after-control impact study of beetle communities in Swedish mires after a megafire

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Författare :Janina Happ; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Coleoptera; Mires; Peatlands; Wildfire; Forestfire; Megafire;

    Sammanfattning : As a consequence to climate change and resulting severe weather events such as prolonged hot and dry periods, wildfire frequency increases globally. Progressively, these effects are noticeable in high latitude countries such as Sweden where a megafire burned 13 100 ha of managed coniferous forest in 2014. LÄS MER
