New publication from GWC charter member @trentpenman.bsky.social & colleagues (preprint, not yet peer reviewed): after short-interval fires, transformed forest areas are harder to ignite and spot less, but produce taller flames once burning. 🔥 doi.org/10.21203/rs.... #FireEcology

Europe just had one of its worst fire seasons on record — 600K+ hectares burned. With a Super El Niño ahead, Australia's bushfire season looks volatile too. Great listen on community-level prep w/ GWC Charter Member David Bowman @utas.edu.au 🔥 bit.ly/4Ar9wSh
