Climate change and land mismanagement are creating increasingly fire-prone built and natural environments. However, despite worsening fire seasons, evidence is lacking globally for trends in socially ...
Honoured to receive the 2025 Philip Leverhulme Prize in Geography for research on pyrogeography, #wildfires, Earth system science, and #climate change impacts.
So grateful for the mentorship, collaboration, and shared curiosity that make this work possible. I owe a lot of people a lot of beer! ๐
Well this has to go straight on the recommended reading list for people entering the fieldโฆ or just seeking to broaden their fire knowledge! ๐

๐จ Launched: State of Wildfires Report 2024-25
The Americas felt the harsh reality of what it means to live on a more fire-prone planet, with extreme #wildfire episodes made 2-3 times more likely by #climate change.

New paper: The role of fire on Earth
doi.org/10.1093/bios... BioScience @aibsbiology.bsky.social
Fire affects all major components of the Earth system: atmosphere, hydrosphere, geosphere, anthroposphere, & biosphere. Fire is an intrinsic factor on our planet.
