Late Paleocene to early Oligocene fire ecology of the south Mongolian highland

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023
Changes in fire ecology during warm and cold periods in the geological past are important because of their effects on terrestrial ecosystems and the global carbon cycle.

Advancing Fire Ecology in 21st Century Rangelands

Rangeland Ecology & Management, 2020
Fire ecology has a long history of empirical investigation in rangelands. However, the science is inconclusive and incomplete, sparking increasing interest on how to advance the discipline.

The impact of fire on habitat use by the short-snouted elephant shrew ('Elephantulus brachyrhynchus') in North West Province, South Africa [PDF]

, 2008
Several studies have investigated the response of small mammal populations to fire, but few have investigated behavioural responses to habitat modification. In this study we investigated the impact of fire on home range, habitat use and activity patterns

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 ...

Post-fire recovery of the plant community in Pinus brutia forests: active vs. indirect restoration techniques after salvage logging

iForest - Biogeosciences and Forestry, 2018
Although reforestation is frequently utilized in many Mediterranean Basin countries to restore burned Mediterranean pine woodlands, post-fire recovery of the plant community is often neglected.

Climate influences on future fire severity: a synthesis of climate-fire interactions and impacts on fire regimes, high-severity fire, and forests in the western United States

Fire Ecology, 2023
Antecedentes Incrementos en la actividad de incendios y cambios en los regímenes de fuego han sido documentados en décadas recientes en todo el oeste de los EEUU. Se espera que el cambio climático continúe exacerbando su impacto en ecosistemas forestales

African fire histories and fire ecologies [PDF]

Past Global Change Magazine, 2018
Patterns of fire are changing across African savannahs, rainforests, fynbos, woodlands, and Afroalpine and montane forests, with direct environmental and socio-ecological consequences. Fire variability has implications for biodiversity (Beale et al. 2018), vegetation patterns, grazing quality, carbon emissions, protected area management, and landscape ...

Tropical Dry Forest Resilience to Fire Depends on Fire Frequency and Climate

, 2021
Wildfires are becoming increasingly frequent and devastating in many tropical forests. Although seasonally dry tropical forests (SDTF) are among the most fire-threatened ecosystems, their long-term response to frequent wildfires remains largely unknown.

Meta-analysis of avian and small-mammal response to fire severity and fire surrogate treatments in U.S. fire-prone forests

, 2012
Management in fire-prone ecosystems relies widely upon application of prescribed fire and/or fire surrogate (e.g., forest thinning) treatments to maintain biodiversity and ecosystem function.
