Contingent Pacific-Atlantic Ocean influence on multicentury wildfire synchrony over western North America.

TL;DR: Relationships between continental-scale patterns of drought and modes of sea surface temperatures (SSTs) such as El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO), Pacific Decadal Oscillations (PDO), and Atlantic Multidecadal O oscillation (AMO) may explain how interannual to multidescadal variability in SSTs drives fire at continental scales.
Journal ArticleDOI

Climate and disturbance forcing of episodic tree recruitment in a southwestern ponderosa pine landscape

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compare multicentury chronologies of tree re- cruitment from a 307-ha ponderosa pine forest in southwestern Colorado to reconstructions of fire years, hydroclimate, and the El Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO).
Journal ArticleDOI

Long-term, landscape patterns of past fire events in a montane ponderosa pine forest of central Colorado

TL;DR: In this paper, centuries-long patterns of fire events in a montane ponderosa pine ‐ Douglas-fir forest landscape surrounding Cheesman Lake in central Colorado were reconstructed from fire-scarred trees and inferences from forest stand ages.
Journal ArticleDOI

The role of climate in a pine forest regeneration pulse in the southwestern United States

TL;DR: In this paper, the role of historical influences in patterning forest landscapes was explored in a case study of forest structure change in the American Southwest, where a group of ponderosa pine trees was destructive.
