Quantifying the drivers and predictability of seasonal changes in African fire
SGEFA-based quantification of environmental controls The multivariate statistical approach, SGEFA, assesses the response of a rapidly changing atmospheric or ecological variable, such as fire carbon emission and burned area fraction (Supplementary Fig. 3), to a set of slowly changing environmental forcings, such as SST, soil moisture, or LAI17,18,24,25,26. At timescale, τ (currently assigned to 1 month), […] More
