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.

A Review of the Applications of Remote Sensing in Fire Ecology
Remote Sensing, 2019 Wildfire plays an important role in ecosystem dynamics, land management, and global processes. Understanding the dynamics associated with wildfire, such as risks, spatial distribution, and effects is important for developing a clear understanding of its ...

Fire EcologyAbstractFire ecology is a complex discipline that can only be understood by integrating biological, physical, and social sciences. The science of fire ecology explores wildland fire’s mechanisms and effects across all scales of time and space. However, the lack of defined, organizing concepts in fire ecology dilutes its collective impact on knowledge ...

Annual Review of Ecology, Evolution, and Systematics, 2022 Fire has been an ecosystem process since plants colonized land over 400 million years ago. Many diverse traits provide a fitness benefit following fires, and these adaptive traits vary with the fire regime. Some of these traits enhance fire survival, while others promote recruitment in the postfire environment.

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 ...
