Landscape fires show large variability in the amount of biomass or fuel
consumed per unit area burned. Fuel consumption (FC) depends on the biomass
available to burn and the fraction of the biomass that is actually combusted,
and can be com...

Recently, Earth system models (ESMs) have begun to
consider the marine ecosystem to reduce errors in climate simulations.
However, many models are unable to fully represent the ocean-biology-induced
climate feedback, which is due in part to...
