Pre‐fire structure drives variability in post‐fire aboveground carbon and fuel profiles in wet temperate forests

Ecosphere
Biological legacies (i.e., materials that persist following disturbance; “legacies”) shape ecosystem functioning and feedbacks to future disturbances, yet how legacies are driven by pre‐disturbance ecosystem state and disturbance severity is poorly ...

Mechanisms of Fire Disturbance Response to Forest Soils

Academic Journal of Science and Technology
Forest soil microorganisms, as an indispensable component of soil ecosystems, play a key role in maintaining, regulating and promoting the process of material cycling, energy flow and natural succession in the whole forest ecosystem. Soil microorganisms are powerful promoters and participants in biogeochemical cycles, especially soil elemental cycles ...

Distinguishing disturbance from perturbations in fire-prone ecosystems [PDF]

International Journal of Wildland Fire, 2019
Fire is a necessary ecosystem process in many biomes and is best viewed as a natural disturbance that is beneficial to ecosystem functioning. However, increasingly, we are seeing human interference in fire regimes that alters the historical range of variability for most fire parameters and results in vegetation shifts. Such perturbations can affect all
