Long-term ecological consequences of forest fires in the continuous permafrost zone of Siberia ...
Abstract Wildfires are an important factor in controlling forest ecosystem dynamics across the circumpolar boreal zone. An improved understanding of their direct and indirect, short- to long-term impacts on vegetation cover and permafrost–vegetation coupling is particularly important to predict chan...
