Rapid soil moisture depletion during flash droughts accelerates wildfire spread in the United States
Abstract Fire danger can escalate rapidly when vegetation dries over days to weeks. Flash droughts, characterised by rapid root-zone soil moisture depletion under high evaporative demand, may accelerate wildfire spread. Here, we quantify relationships between flash droughts and w...

The UK energy transition is projected to require billions of pounds of investment, not only in renewable supply, but also in demand-side technologies and system management. While this investment is expected to come from large scale commercial finance, both citizen finance and sma...

ABSTRACT Evaluating the representation of observed precipitation trends in historical climate model simulations is challenging due to the combined effects of dynamical and thermodynamic changes and the strong influence of natural variability. Here, we assess the representation of...
