The third dimension: How fire-related research can advance ecology and evolutionary biology

open access: yesIdeas 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 ...
