It was a furious encounter with a living substance that was coming at me through all things at once, and one reason for the terrible wordlessness of the experience is that you cannot observe fire really closely without becoming part of it.
During the home visit, data collectors observed fire department activities and recorded fidelity to the fire department's protocol using a process evaluation checklist.
A wildfire at Blacks Mountain Experimental Forest provided the opportunity to observe fire severity at the point of transition between treated and untreated stands.
The possible effects of these changes on cerrado landscapes are still unknown, and future studies should investigate if currently observed fire regimes have positive or negative impacts on vegetation diversity, recovery, resilience and phenology, thus helping managers to include fire management as conservation measure.
After accounting for land-cover changes and climate, our model under-estimates observed fire frequency during ca. 1990 2002 and over-estimates it thereafter, suggesting that a multi-decadal shift to industrial forest conversion and forest landscapes may have diminished the propensity for high-frequency fires in much of this globally significant tropical region since ca. 2000.
In early November, the ship's aircraft observed fire for a variety of ships during the Third Battle of Gaza.
We have observed fire ants in a raft moving in random directions interspersed by a distance s.
For persons with available data for the type of tasks (N = 4470) differences in mortality were observed: fire fighters who spent more than 50% of their working time in the fire fighting & rescue service showed a higher SMR (0.79; 95% CI, 0.74 0.84) than fire fighters with more than 50% of their working time in the administration (SMR, 0.53; 95% CI, 0.35 0.78).
In an ideal world we would have sufficient data to match modelled risk trends in each region against observed fire occurrence data, but as the length of reliable records is short (Valese et al., 2011; Eastaugh and Vacik, 2012), this is not yet possible in Austria.
In the final passages Cowell is observed firing off memos about the Olympics and enthusing about his recent colonic irrigation.
