Wildfire Industry Collective’s Post

Thanks to #CLMS and its continuous evolution, we get valuable information regarding #wildfires in Greece! Monitoring of such events is important to understand their trends and implement effective policies which are much needed if we want to reduce their impact. #climatecrisis #climatechange #eu #copernicus #copernicuseu #earthobservation #remotesensing #geospatial #policymaking

July is quickly coming to an end, and #Greece is enduring yet another extremely hot summer. 🌡 With the warmest winter and earliest heat wave on record, the country is facing a challenging year with numerous #wildfire outbreaks. 🔥 This comes fresh on the heels of 2023, a year in which Greece experienced catastrophic #burning across the country. The impact of these fires on vegetation cover 🌳 🌿 can be observed using the #CLMS Global Burnt Area product and the CLC+ Backbone. Dark areas on the maps indicate burned regions where wildfires have changed the landscape across Greece. These data are invaluable for monitoring wildfires and assessing their effects.

Another challenging summer for #Greece with #wildfire outbreaks. Using CLMS products, it is possible to see the burned areas from last year. We have gathered a selection of our key resources to help you better understand extreme summer weather in Europe: https://lnkd.in/dNmm5MVP #drought #fires #forestfires #ExtremeWeather

🥳#Session_Chair Announcement We're excited to announce that Dr. Dominick DellaSala, from Wild Heritage, will be the session chair of Session: Forest Wildfires   Session Introduction: Wildfires are a keystone process necessary for maintaining fire-adapted forests. Recent wildfire increases have prompted calls for stepped up logging, burning, fire suppression, and road building to tame large fires. This special session will focus on how extreme fire weather events (heat domes, drought, winds) interact with heavily logged and roaded landscapes in contributing to large fires that cannot be contained or reduced by such management. We will present evidence from western North America (dry pine, mixed conifers), eastern Canada (boreal), and southeast Australia (Eucalyptus forests) of a consistent pattern of severe fire in areas experiencing both extreme fire weather and high rates of logging. Look forward to meeting you in 2024 at https://lnkd.in/gvsek556   Abstract submission deadline 27 May 2024 📩 Submit abstract today at https://lnkd.in/eRXQQanE Registration Deadline: 16 September 2024 🔗 Registration for free: https://lnkd.in/gf6s67nU #IECF2024 #openaccess #forest #freeofcharge

Hi there! 😊 Have you been seeing our posts and wondering, "Why are they posting about volcanoes, explosions, space weather, etc.?" We're here to remind you that it is #NationalPreparednessMonth! Our 30-day social media campaign, "Taking Preparedness One Day at a Time," features a new post each day about different hazards and preparedness tips for it, whether you believe it will happen or not. Our main goal is to ensure our community is prepared for ANYTHING! To learn more about how you can prepare, visit YavapaiReady.Gov/Prepare #EmergencyManagement #YavapaiCounty #EmergencyPreparedness #NationalPreparednessMonth #Preparedness #CommunityPreparedness #CommunityResilience #HazardMitigation #Hazards #Wildfire #Earthquake #Volcano #Explosion #SpaceWeather #Tornado #FlashFlooding #Arizona #NorthernArizona #CentralArizona #Drought

CONFLICTS MANAGEMENT: WILDFIRES ARE BACK! https://lnkd.in/dGYK8B9P We need to educate the population about their carelessness regarding fires left unattended and destroying large areas of green land. Let us hope for a peaceful summer without unmanageable fires and displacement of populations.

Ecosystem services of mangroves - visited Florida ________________________________________________________ Mangroves in Florida are more than just important for the local ecology; they are a vital line of defense against the damaging effects of hurricanes. By reducing storm surges, preventing coastal erosion, and supporting ecosystem recovery, they provide invaluable services to both the environment and human populations. Protecting and restoring mangrove ecosystems is crucial for the long-term resilience of Florida’s coastal regions in the face of increasing hurricane activity.

🐠 Fish monitoring provides further insight into estuarine ecosystem resilience 🍃 https://lnkd.in/gcGK4tX7 The estuarine fish monitoring program is revealing incredible insights into the importance of coastal habitats for fish and their response to disturbance, such as floods.  Find out more about it in the article (link above), written by our Knowledge Research team. #estuarineecosystems #fish #fishmonitoring #coastalhabitats #resilience #southeastqueensland
