Ecohydrological consequences of drought- and infestation-triggered tree die-off: Insights and hypotheses
Widespread, rapid, drought-, and infestation-triggered tree mortality is emerging as a phenomenon affecting forests globally and may be linked to increasing temperatures and drought frequency and severity. The ecohydrological consequences of forest dieoff have been little studied and remain highly uncertain. To explore this knowledge gap, we apply the extensive literature on the ecohydrological...
متن کاملA review of the relationships between drought and forest fire in the United States.
The historical and presettlement relationships between drought and wildfire are well documented in North America, with forest fire occurrence and area clearly increasing in response to drought. There is also evidence that drought interacts with other controls (forest productivity, topography, fire weather, management activities) to affect fire intensity, severity, extent, and frequency. Fire re...
