Lightning ignited forest fires as a geoecological factor influencing the stability of light coniferous forests of the Soyana river basin on belomorsko-kuloyskoe plateau // Transactions of Karelian Research Centre of Russian Academy of Science.

Forest fires are a major ecological and evolutional factor, influencing the development and stable existence of light coniferous forests. It is demonstrated that in the central part of Belomorsko:Kuloyskoe plateau the main cause of forest fires is lightning strikes that are connected with magnetic field anomalies, tectonic faults and dry conditions in habitats. The central (Megra:Kepinskaya) system of faults is the location of more than 50 % of lightning ignited forest fires recorded on Belomorsko:Kuloyskoe plateau. Such studies reveal interactions between lithosphere, atmosphere and biosphere.
