The number of wildfires has increased dramatically in recent years due to diminishing forest health caused by the drastically changing climate across the world. Longer dry-weather periods and pressure from a variety of pests and diseases, e.g. bark beetles, are affecting the large forest areas in Northern Europe. In addition to financial losses, these impacts are resulting in lower carbon accumulation and vast ecological changes. The number of wildfires has increased dramatically in recent years due to diminishing forest health caused by the drastically changing climate across the world. Longer dry-weather periods and pressure from...

The US Geological Survey (USGS) and Dewberry have jointly released a new topobathymetric Lidar dataset for the Potomac River, extending from the Potomac Highlands in West Virginia to the Chesapeake...
