“…The theoretical results of Peters and Higuera (2007) also suggest that macroscopic charcoal, even though strongly biased towards short distances, may travel many kilometres, which is consistent with dispersal data from uncontrolled fires (e.g. Whitlock and Millspaugh, 1996;Pisaric, 2002;Hallett et al, 2003;Tinner et al, 2006).…”

“…According to most studies on charcoal dispersal and deposition, larger and heavier charcoal fragments settle closer to the fire edge and represent local fires, while smaller, lighter particles may be transported over long distances and, therefore, indicate regional fire events (e.g. Patterson et al, 1987;Whitlock and Millspaugh, 1996;Clark et al, 1998;Long et al, 1998;Tinner et al, 1998;Blackford, 2000;Ohlson and Tryterud, 2000;Carcaillet et al, 2001;Gardner and Whitlock, 2001). Blackford (2000) found that particles b20 μm were most reliable as indicators of regional background charcoal, while particles N125 μm were representative of local fires.…”

“…MacDonald et al, 1991;Tinner et al, 1998;Carcaillet et al, 2001a;Gardner and Whitlock, 2001), whereas macroscopic particles (>100-150 μm) express local (e.g. Clark, 1988;Whitlock and Millspaugh, 1996;Gavin et al, 2003b;Lynch et al, 2004;Higuera et al, 2005) as well as micro-regional fire episodes that may mainly depend on fire size and intensity (Pisaric, 2002;[Tinner et al, 2006a] and [Tinner et al, 2006b]; Peters and Higuera, 2007).…”

“…Background charcoal influx (BCHAR) may be determined by several sedimentary processes on charcoal (e.g. the deposition of reworked particles from littoral sediment, Whitlock and Millspaugh, 1996). Alternatively, it may be also linked to fuel availability and characteristics (Vázquez et al, 2002;Marlon et al, 2006;Pausas and Bradstock, 2007) or regional fire activity (Whitlock and Larsen, 2001).…”
