Opportunities and challenges for savanna burning emissions abatement in southern Africa

Jeremy Russell-Smith et al.

Summary: The article discusses the issue of fire emissions in southern African savannas, proposing a method of reducing late dry season wildfire extent and emissions through early dry season burning. Through two field studies, it demonstrates the feasibility of this method in meeting key technical criteria.

Transforming fire management in northern Australia through successful implementation of savanna burning emissions reductions projects

Andrew Edwards et al.

Summary: Savannas are the most fire-prone of Earth's biomes and Australia has made substantial developments in savanna burning emissions accounting methods to incentivise conservative fire management. The savanna burning projects have generated significant emissions reductions and financial benefits, but biodiversity conservation considerations remain controversial. Despite achievements in reducing late season wildfires and increasing controlled burning, savanna burning projects do not solve all regional conservation and cultural management issues.

Connections of climate change and variability to large and extreme forest fires in southeast Australia

Nerilie J. Abram et al.

Summary: The unprecedented 2019/20 Black Summer bushfire disaster in southeast Australia was mainly caused by extreme dry climate and long-term climate trends leading to increased fire risk. Improving local and national adaptation measures while pursuing ambitious global climate change mitigation efforts are necessary to limit further increases in fire risk in southeast Australia. Multiple climate change contributors have led to an increase in fire extent and intensity over the past decades, and this trend is likely to continue into the future.
