TL;DR: The Fire Model Intercomparison Project (FireMIP) is coordinating the evaluation of state-of-the-art global fire models, with the aim of improving projections of fire regime characteristic and fire impacts on ecosystems and human societies under the context of global environmental change as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: This article analyzed macrocharcoal morphologies and pollen of a sediment record from Lake Lielais Svētiņu (eastern Latvia) and in conjunction with fire traits analysis presented the first record of Holocene variability in fire regime, fuel sources and fire types in boreal forests of the Baltic region.

TL;DR: In this paper, a multi-proxy approach (macrocharcoal, charred remains, pollen, plant macrofossils) was applied to two sedimentary sequences spanning stands of closed canopy Picea abies to the P. sylvatica treeline located in the northern Carpathians, Romania.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used GPP estimates from a combination of eight global biome models participating in the Inter-Sectoral Impact-Model Intercomparison Project phase 2a (ISIMIP2a), the Moderate Resolution Spectroradiometer (MODIS) GPP product, and a data-driven product (Model Tree Ensemble, MTE) to study the spatiotemporal variability of GPP at the regional and global levels.
