The third dimension: How fire-related research can advance ecology and evolutionary biology
Ideas in Ecology and Evolution, 2020 Most of the Earth’s vegetated surface is fireprone but the relevance of fire in understanding how nature works is not always recognized. We aim to show that, by adding the fire dimension to observations on biological phenomena, interpretations can be im ...

“Fire Ecology Across Boundaries”: the international congress focused on wildfires
Forest@, 2020 The current operating model based only on the approach of fire suppression has generated what experts call the “fire-paradox”: the control of all wildfires in the seasons with mild weather generates a fuel load which increases the probability of ...

Reconsidering the fire ecology of the iconic American chestnut
Ecosphere, 2020 The iconic American chestnut (Castanea dentata) once spanned a large portion of eastern North America before its functional extinction in the early 20th century due primarily to non‐native fungal pathogens.

Heat shock and plant leachates regulate seed germination of the endangered carnivorous plant Drosophyllum lusitanicum [PDF]
Web Ecology, 2018 In fire-prone ecosystems, many plant species have specialized mechanisms of seed dormancy that ensure a successful recruitment after fire. A well-documented mechanism is the germination stimulated by fire-related cues, such as heat shock and smoke ...
