Even in extreme wildfires, thinning and prescribed burns to reduce the number of small trees and shrubs can pay off in the long run, a new study shows.

"In terms of ecosystem function, particularly buffering the atmosphere against climate change, ectomycorrhizal fungi are among the last microbes you want to lose."

You might think that freshly burned pine forests would have fewer resident bees. But a new study shows that's not the case.

When different kinds of land-use mix—including grassland, forest, urban areas, and bodies of water—the landscape is more productive and stable.

Aerial maps of tropical forests that show the chemistry of the canopy could shed light on how forests will react to climate change.

Bats face many threats—but a new study shows wildfire isn't one of them. In fact, some actually benefit from it.

"Losing Earth's remaining wilderness is devastating by itself, but climate impacts 626% greater than expected is terrifying."

Climate has been a major driver for wildfire severity in California's Sierra Nevada region, which also means that future climate change will drive

As thousands of fires still rage in the Amazon, experts explain what started the fires, what could stop them, and why the Amazon matters so much.

A gel-like fluid could offer a simple, affordable treatment to dramatically cut the number of wildfires that occur each year. It even works when it's wet.
