Arctic fires can release large amounts of carbon from permafrost peatlands. Satellite observations reveal that burned ~4.7 million hectares in 2019 and 2020, accounting for 44% the total area Siberian entire 1982-2020 period. The summer 2020 was warmest four decades, with burning an unprecedentedly carbon-rich soils. We show factors fire associated temperature have increased recent decades identified a near-exponential relationship between these annual area. Large are likely to recur...
Abstract Soil moisture and its isotopic composition were observed at Spasskaya Pad experimental forest near Yakutsk, Russia, during summer in 1998, 1999, 2000. The amount of soil water (plus ice) was estimated from volumetric content obtained with time domain reflectometry. δ 18 O showed large interannual variation depending on the rainfall. decreased a dry (1998), indicating that ice meltwater deeper layer transported upward. On other hand, wet (1999), increased due to percolation rain high...
REDD+ was designed globally as a results-based instrument to incentivize emissions reduction from deforestation and forest degradation. Over 50 countries have developed strategies for REDD+, implemented pilot activities and/or set up monitoring reporting structures, safeguard systems benefit sharing mechanisms (BSMs), offering lessons on how particular ideas guide policy design. The implementation of at national, sub-national local levels required payments filter through multiple governance...
Southeast Asia has long promoted social forestry (SF) in conservation areas, fallow forests, tree plantations, areas timber concessions and locally managed agro-forest systems, with the engagement of diverse actors objectives. SF evolved from early aims empowerment devolution rights advocated by global reform movements, is now reframed market ideal as a win–win–win endeavor for sustainable forest management, climate change mitigation robust entrepreneurial livelihoods. Asian states have...
We are living in a time of crisis on planet Earth. Urgent calls for transformational change getting louder. Technical solutions have an important role to play addressing pressing global challenges, but alone they not enough. After all, who decides what kind transformation is needed, what, and whom? What principles guide those decisions, how decision-makers held accountable? This commentary article argues that these governance questions central any solution, order simultaneously address the...
Until 2018, the El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) was used as an explanation for fires in Indonesia’s peatlands. However, when 2019 occurred independently of Niño, more suitable indicators and methods were required to (a) analyze, (b) evaluate (c) forecast peatland fires. In this study, we introduced OLR–MC index—one rain-related indices derived from OLR (outgoing longwave radiation) MC (maritime continent) area Indonesia. This index showed stronger correlation with active than...
We studied the relationships between earlywood/latewood width, stable carbon isotope ratio (δ 13 C) of cellulose, and soil moisture at a dry wet site in Yakutsk, eastern Siberia, which differed considerably water conditions. Recharge by snowmelt spring subsequent drought summer provided marked seasonal contrast conditions earlywood latewood formation period. Ring index was calculated dividing each width 5‐year averaged for individual. In order to determine whether influenced ring index‐δ C...
This paper analyses the policy changes occurring in forest and palm oil sectors of Sabah, Malaysian Borneo, through lens transformational change concept. The aim is to first examine whether Sabah transforming and, if so, identify determinants enabling or hindering change. To determine transforming, we used two criteria: - (i) an ambitious framework, that promotes conservation sustainable use, moving away from business-as-usual activities; (ii) level implementation policies identified as...
Most wildland fires in boreal forests occur during summer, but major the lower Amur River Basin of southern Khabarovsk Krai (SKK) mainly spring. To reduce active SKK, we carried out daily analysis MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) hotspot (HS) data and various weather charts. HS 17 years from 2003 were used to identify average seasonal fire occurrence. Active fire-periods extracted by considering number HSs their continuity. Weather charts, temperature maps, wind maps top...
Many ecolabels support sustainable production and consumption related to ecosystem services could be used as a basis develop certification. To generate price premium attract buy-in from producers, such certification would need boost the brand equity of certified product above competition. This study tests feasibility an effect by analyzing bottled water using choice experiment with 529 households in Lombok, Indonesia. Our results revealed enhanced bottles, indicating impact ecolabel logos...
Terminal tetraloops consisting of GNRA sequences are often found in biologically active large RNAs. The loops appear to contribute towards the organization higher order RNA structures by forming specific tertiary interactions with their receptors. Group IC3 introns which possess a GAAA loop L2 region have phylogenetically conserved motif P8 domains. In this report, we show that stands as new class receptor distinguishes less stringently than previously known can functionally substitute an 11...
<p class="Abstract">fires in Indonesia. About thirty percent of the total fires are spread Central Kalimantan Province. Symptoms climate change form increasingly frequent weather and extreme phenomena support severity forest land which results increased release air pollution gases. In 2015, peak fire months had emitted a high concentration pollutant gasses causes hazardous pollution. This study aims to investigate latest severe occurrence haze conditions Kalimantan. Hotspot data was...
Research into pyrogenic carbon emissions in the temperate belt of Russian Federation has traditionally focused on impact forest fires. Nevertheless, ecosystems which wildfires also make a significant contribution to anthropogenic CO2 are poorly studied. We evaluated fires non-forest Middle Amur Lowland, Khabarovsk Territory Federation. Our study is based long-term Earth remote sensing data medium spatial resolution (Landsat 5, 7, and 8) expeditionary studies (2018–2021). The assessment...
Forest fires are a common and destructive natural disaster in Russia. Weather conditions during active forest fire periods southern Sakha (Eastern Siberia) at high latitudes (58–65°N, 120–140°E) were evaluated. Periods of activity 2002 to 2016 identified using MODIS (moderate resolution imaging spectroradiometer) hotspot data by considering the number daily hotspots their continuity. top seven analyzed atmospheric reanalysis for upper (500 hPa) lower levels (925 hPa). Our results showed that...
Abstract Forest fires in peatlands emit pollutants to the atmosphere, affecting public health. Though air quality data and epidemiology information are helpful management of environment health, they not always available. We aimed reveal utility newspaper articles for estimating health concerns posed by pollution. Using database a local newspaper, Riau Pos , Province Sumatra, Indonesia, we have studied spatiotemporal correlations between publication frequency mentioning search terms relevant...
Abstract This study evaluates the oil palm and rubber-driven deforestation in Indonesia Malaysia between 2000–2021 through secondary data analysis from a rich set by collecting integrating multiple sources. Results show significant tree cover loss, including 82% 250% of primary forest loss Malaysia. Oil harvested area increased 650% 50% Malaysia, while production rose 566% 65% over same period. The also find that rubber-harvested areas 54% but decreased 20% with rubber increasing 108%...
Central Kalimantan covers an area of 157,983 km2 with more than 2,000 tropical peatlands, which is one the buffer regions Indonesia's new capital government city. However, sad story conversion about million hectares from peat swamp forests (PSF) to rice fields occurred in mid-1990s, so called Mega Rice Project (MRP). Since then, forest and peatland fires become annual event due high level degradation under climate change symptoms such frequent El Niño event. In very strong 2015, Indonesia...
