Wildfires in the Siberian Arctic
نویسندگان
چکیده
Wildfires are increasingly understood as an ecological driver within the entire Arctic biome. soils naturally store large quantities of C, peat has formed throughout Holocene. For Siberian Arctic, we used observations from MODIS remote sensing instrument to document changes in frequency, geographic extent, and seasonal timing wildfires well vegetation productivity (GPP, NPP, EVI). We also correlation regression analysis identify environmental factors temperature, precipitation, lightning occurrence associated with these changes. a whole, found that decadal frequency wildfire tripled 2001–2010 2011–2020 periods. Increased was accompanied by increased extent burnt area factor 2.6. This increase fire not uniform, greatest western Siberia no marked for Far East. These were northward migration northern limit duration season. annual areas related various combinations air ground moisture, frequency. After fires, rapidly recovered pre-fire levels. The spread into tundra will release carbon long-stored peat. enhanced productivity, rapid recovery fixation boreal forest tree species may offset maintain current status C sink. loss permafrost threaten ongoing settlement industrialization, particularly Siberia.

Wildfires Dynamics in Siberian Larch Forests
Wildfire number and burned area temporal dynamics within all of Siberia and along a south-north transect in central Siberia (45 ̋–73 ̋ N) were studied based on NOAA/AVHRR (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration/ Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer) and Terra/MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) data and field measurements for the period 1996–2015. In addition, fire ...

متن کاملSiberian Arctic black carbon sources constrained by model and observation.
Black carbon (BC) in haze and deposited on snow and ice can have strong effects on the radiative balance of the Arctic. There is a geographic bias in Arctic BC studies toward the Atlantic sector, with lack of observational constraints for the extensive Russian Siberian Arctic, spanning nearly half of the circum-Arctic. Here, 2 y of observations at Tiksi (East Siberian Arctic) establish a strong...
متن کاملHigh resilience in the Yamal-Nenets social-ecological system, West Siberian Arctic, Russia.
Tundra ecosystems are vulnerable to hydrocarbon development, in part because small-scale, low-intensity disturbances can affect vegetation, permafrost soils, and wildlife out of proportion to their spatial extent. Scaling up to include human residents, tightly integrated arctic social-ecological systems (SESs) are believed similarly susceptible to industrial impacts and climate change. In contr...
