Abstract
In the late 1980’s a steadily increasing number of research activities began to investigate the role of fire in the contemporary and historic biosphere and atmosphere. In the context of the role of fire in processes related to “global change”, the need was recognized to integrate the approaches and findings of traditionally separated science disciplines into a broader view on global fire. Subsequently, a series of monographs and conferences attempted to formulate the base for a comprehensive global fire science (e.g. Goldammer 1990, Levine 1991, Crutzen and Goldammer 1993, Goldammer 1993, Pyne 1995, Goldammer and Furiaev 1996).
