Tropical peatlands are ecosystems that hold large amounts of carbon in their soil. With the advent of climate change, some tropical peatlands have become immensely dry, resulting in large peat fires. The burning of peat releases substantial amounts of carbon to the atmosphere, and therefore exacerbates ongoing climate change. In this study, we use satellite data to predict the most fire-prone tropical peatland areas 10, 20, and even 30 days in advance. With this knowledge, stakeholders may take action to mitigate or even eliminate conditions that would increase the likelihood of fire in these systems. Actively decreasing the probability of tropical peatland fire not only has implications for climate change mitigation, but may also aid in tropical peatland conservation efforts along with preventing haze events that may be hazardous to human health.
