Differences in flammability and risk between human- and lightning-ignited fires are obvious. Our new paper reveals this issue with strong implications for fire modeling and management.

Risky days for anthropogenic fires are growing faster than risky days for lightning-caused fires. Human-caused fires can occur in wetter conditions, as they ignite in dead grass or wood, rather than in the moist canopy where lightning strikes. Read now: ow.ly/c2X650V290e

📌New Publication Led by @ArashGhoddousi, our study on 52 protected areas (PAs) in the Caucasus shows challenges in preventing rangeland degradation from overgrazing. Multiple-use PAs were notably less effective than strictly protected ones. @ConBiology conbio.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/co…


🚨 Just 5 days left! 🚨 Looking for #PhD and #PostDoc opportunities? Don’t miss this chance to join our team! We will start reviewing applications on November 10th, so apply soon! #opportunity #PhD #academicjobs

We have two exciting opportunities at @SilvisLab, @UWMadison! We are looking for a Postdoc and a PhD student to join our research on Wildfires, Biodiversity, and the Wildland-Urban Interface. Please share or RT! For more information: silvis.forest.wisc.edu/wildfires-biod…
