Because of that, California changed its code requirements, which remain in place today, forcing builders to place insulation behind a thermal barrier, where it would be protected from fire.
Fire onset at c. 14.5.ka cal BP, quickly transformed the local vegetation and the woodlands became restricted to areas protected from fire.
Grace et al [6] report an average carbon sequestration rate of 14 g C m-2 year-1 for tropical savannas, a rate that may increase in areas protected from fire, grazing and intense cultivation [8].
The present study was designed to assess the short-range spatial variability of different tropical earthworm populations in a savanna protected from fire for 15 years in the station d'Écologie Tropicale of Lamto (Côte d'Ivoire).
While Forest was exclusively associated with landscapes protected from fire, much Fynbos and Thicket were found in areas exposed to fires of intermediate frequency; however, in these situations Fynbos is restricted to sandstone-derived soils and thicket to shale-derived soils.
That little white label on your couch indicating that it meets flame retardant standards might have reassured you that you would be protected from fire.
ENSO-related droughts [22] and temperature changes [33] are strongest in the northern Amazon; however, these areas are also protected from fire by high background rainfall (up to 4000 mm annually) [34] and remoteness (fewer roads and people result in fewer ignitions) [19].
Grace et al [ 6] report an average carbon sequestration rate of 14 g C m-2 year-1 for tropical savannas, a rate that may increase in areas protected from fire, grazing and intense cultivation [ 8].
The view of circumcision as second protection supports earlier assertions that circumcision is like a pair of gloves which protects from fire.
Waterproof to 10 feet of fresh or salt water for as long as three days, and fireproof to 1,550 degrees for 30 minutes, the Solo may seem like overkill, but think about it this way: Many people keep a small safe in their home -- not so much because they fear burglary, but because they have valuable documents they want to protect from fire and water damage.
