- Wildfires | NASA Earthdata
Wildfire is an essential process connecting terrestrial systems to the atmosphere and climate As vegetation burns, it releases smoke, carbon, and other materials into the atmosphere These fires also release nutrients into the soil and are an integral part of ecological succession, plant germination, and soil enhancement
- Wildfires - World Health Organization (WHO)
Wildfire smoke is a mixture of air pollutants of which particulate matter (PM) is the principal public health threat PM 2 5 from wildfire smoke is associated with premature deaths in the general population, and can cause and exacerbate diseases of the lungs, heart, brain nervous system, skin, gut, kidney, eyes, nose and liver
- Wildfire Suppression | NASA Earthdata
Working in conjunction with specially designed firefighting aircraft, these wildfire-trained crews suppress flames, construct firelines, and extinguish flames and areas of heat to protect resources and natural wilderness Wildfire suppression also addresses the issues of the wildland-urban interface, where populated areas border with wildland
- Wildfires in Los Angeles, California | NASA Earthdata
This false-color corrected reflectance image of fires in Los Angeles, California, including the Palisades, Hurst, and Eaton Fires, was captured on January 8, 2025, by NASA's MODIS instrument aboard the Aqua platform
- Water Use Efficiency, Carbon Mapping, and Wildfire Prediction
ECOSTRESS Enhances Wildfire Prediction Wildfires are an growing burden and ongoing threat to many western regions in the United States As climate and water availability patterns change and expand the frequency of wildfires, it is becoming increasingly important to understand fire events
- FIRMS | NASA Earthdata
The Fire Information for Resource Management System (FIRMS) provides access, with minimal delay, to satellite imagery, active fire hotspots, and related products to identify the location, extent, and intensity of wildfire activity FIRMS tools and applications provide geospatial data, products, and
- The Big and Small of Fire in Africa | NASA Earthdata
The NASA data that Davies, Ichoku, Rasolohery, and many others use to track and study wildfire provide critical information they need to determine what blazes mean for African communities Understanding the data can certainly be complex and nuanced at times, such as when viewing hundreds of tiny fire points on a world map
- Evolution of a Wildfire | NASA Earthdata
Science Objectives First responders and civic officials can utilize thermal anomalies and fire products from lower-resolution remote sensing instruments, such as the Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (), to monitor how a fire is evolving
