Developing effective participatory community-based governance is recognised as a key challenge in delivering equitable and sustainable outcomes for Indigenous communities in market-based carbon and ecosystem services projects.

Our study looked at past elevated fire danger days, but also at how it will change in the future in the Netherlands using meteorological data, the Canadian Fire Weather Index and Dutch climate scenarios. We find that fire danger has increased already and will continue to do so in the future.

An assessment scale for the forest fire workers recruitment process in Turkey was created and its validity and reliability evaluated. Twenty-three criteria were identified across five factors through confirmatory factor analysis. The calculated goodness-of-fit indices for the CFA model indicated a strong model fit to the observed data.
This work presents an efficient ensemble simulation platform for landscape-scale wildfire simulations with physical representation of the combustion. We conducted high-fidelity simulations spanning 117 different wind speeds and slopes combinations. The fire spread and intermittency behaviour is studied, with an analysis of the plume- and convection-driven fire regimes.
