  abstract = {{B}iomass burning impacts vegetation dynamics, biogeochemical cycling, atmospheric chemistry, and climate, with sometimes deleterious socio-economic impacts. {U}nder future climate projections it is often expected that the risk of wildfires will increase. {O}ur ability to predict the magnitude and geographic pattern of future fire impacts rests on our ability to model fire regimes, using either well-founded empirical relationships or process-based models with good predictive skill. {W}hile a large variety of models exist today, it is still unclear which type of model or degree of complexity is required to model fire adequately at regional to global scales. {T}his is the central question underpinning the creation of the {F}ire {M}odel {I}ntercomparison {P}roject ({F}ire{MIP}), an international initiative to compare and evaluate existing global fire models against benchmark data sets for present-day and historical conditions. {I}n this paper we review how fires have been represented in fire-enabled dynamic global vegetation models ({DGVM}s) and give an overview of the current state of the art in fire-regime modelling. {W}e indicate which challenges still remain in global fire modelling and stress the need for a comprehensive model evaluation and outline what lessons may be learned from {F}ire{MIP}.},
