Analyzing Drivers of Tropical Moist Forest Dynamics in the Kahuzi-Biega National Park Landscape, Eastern Democratic Republic of Congo from 1990 to 2022 by Nadège Cizungu Cirezi, Jean-François Bastin, Yannick Mugumaarhahama, Yannick Sikuzani Useni, Katcho Karume, Raymond Sinsi Lumbuenamo, Jan Bogaert

“…The edge and outer zones experienced substantial dynamics, with approximately 30% forest cover loss in both areas, contrasting with the relatively stable TMF cover (~100%) in the inner zone. Fire emerged as the most influential driver, explaining TMF dynamics with a relative importance of approximately 55%, 30%, and 23% in the inner, edge, and outer zones, respectively. …”

L’agriculture itinérante sur brûlis, une menace sur la forêt tropicale humide ? by Serge Bahuchet, Jean-Marie Betsch

“…It results in an ambiguous talk based on a homogeneous and out of context image of the term “itinerant agriculture on slash-and-burn field” characterized by fallowing and firing, referred to in English by two not synonymic terms, “Slash-and-burn” that is “to fell and to burn” to cultivate permanently slash-and-burn fields , or “Shifting cultivation” or “Swidden cultivation” which correspond to the French agriculture itinérante or agriculture sur brûlis, that is an agricultural system in which fields are cleared by firing and cropped discontinuously. …”

A state of the art review on geotechnical reinforcement with end life tires by M. Shariati, M. Afrazi, H. Kamyab, S. Rouhanifar, E. Toghroli, M. Safa, Sh. Chelliapan, H. Afrazi

“…The accumulation of discarded tires poses significant environmental and economic concerns globally, with traditional disposal methods often leading to environmental degradation, fire hazards, and increased land use. By harnessing the inherent properties of scrap tires, such as their durability and energy-absorbing characteristics, geotechnical engineering presents a promising path for repurposing these materials. …”

USSR in World War II by M. Yu. Myagkov

“…Nazism, racial theory, mixed with far-reaching geopolitical designs, became the combustible mixture that ignited the fire of glob­al conflict. The war with the Soviet Union was planned to be waged with particular cruelty.The preconditions for the outbreak of World War II were the humiliating provisions of the Versailles Peace Treaty for the German people, as well as the attitude of the "Western de­mocracies" to Russia after 1917 and the Soviet Union as an outcast of world development. …”

Etude préliminaire de l'influence des disponibilités alimentaires et des activités humaines sur l’utilisation spatiale de l’habitat par les chimpanzés et les bonobos by Victor Narat, Marie Cibot, Jean Christophe Bokika Ngawolo, Richard Dumez, Sabrina Krief

“…Among human activities recorded within the home range of Sebitoli chimpanzees, poaching has high consequences on chimpanzees as they sometimes get trapped in cable snares placed to capture duikers and are deeply injured : 23 chimpanzees among 65 identified so far, suffer from mutilations due to snares (21 wire snares deactivated during the study period). Charcoal burning or fire wood collection also occur but human presence is prohibited within the National Park. …”
