Citations in the corpus

• Alaska's Changing Fire Regime - Implications for the Vulnerability of Its Boreal Forests (2010, background): “In the Alaskan boreal forest, the density of lightning strikes varies regionally (with an east-to-west climatic gradient) and locally (with elevation and vegetation type) (Dissing and Verbyla 2003).”
• Global Pyrogeography: the Current and Future Distribution of Wildfire (2009, background): “In turn, weather and vegetation conditions affect ignitions, in conjunction with topographic effects on patterns of lightning strikes [24] and anthropogenic control over ignition.”
• The spatially varying influence of humans on fire probability in North America (2016, background): “Some of the most remote areas of the western US may also be ignition limited simply because they encompass some of the highest mountains and because lightning ignitions are deficient at very high elevations (Dissing and Verbyla 2003) (figure E1).”
