Unexpected responses to wildfire by seedlings in the Yukon
Fire-adapted trees should be able to take advantage of wildfires, but on the boundary between the boreal forest and the tundra, something odd is happening.

Fire-adapted trees should be able to take advantage of wildfires, but on the boundary between the boreal forest and the tundra, something odd is happening.
Snow cover can delay the growing season of plants, but reducing it can also have negative consequences.
The larger the tree, the drier the peat and so the greater the fire risk.
You might think that increasing forest cover is good news in Brazil, but that’s not always the case, according to a new study.
