Plant rarity in fire-prone dry sclerophyll communities [PDF]
Understanding the responses of rare species to altered fire disturbance regimes is an ongoing challenge for ecologists. We asked: are there associations between fire regimes and plant rarity across different vegetation communities?

Balancing fire risk and human thermal comfort in fire-prone urban landscapes. [PDF]
Vegetation in urban areas provides many essential ecosystem services. These services may be indirect, such as carbon sequestration and biological diversity, or direct, including microclimate regulation and cultural values.

Allelopathic Mechanisms in Fire-Prone Ecosystems
Understanding the fire-prone arid-zone pine species and maquis vegetation's response to fire is very important to reveal the ecology and evolution of these species. During the succession of vegetation, there are complex relationships between allelopathic

Fire-Related Cues Significantly Promote Seed Germination of Some Salt-Tolerant Species from Non-Fire-Prone Saline-Alkaline Grasslands in Northeast China [PDF]
Seed germination in response to fire-related cues has been widely studied in species from fire-prone ecosystems. However, the germination characteristics of species from non-fire-prone ecosystems, such as the saline-alkaline grassland, where fire ...

Root traits in response to frequent fires: Implications for belowground carbon dynamics in fire-prone savannas [PDF]
Predicting how belowground carbon storage reflects changes in aboveground vegetation biomass is an unresolved challenge in most ecosystems. This is especially true for fire-prone savannas, where frequent fires shape the fraction of carbon allocated to ...

Fire and Herbivory as Architects of Mediterranean Biodiversity [PDF]
Reconstructing the long‐term interactions between fire and herbivory is essential to understand how Mediterranean vegetation has historically responded to disturbance regimes which is a critical step for informing current biodiversity and fire management

COMPARISON BETWEEN DIFFERENT VERSIONS OF INPE'S FIRE RISK MODEL FOR THE BRAZILIAN BIOMES [PDF]
Fires are intrinsic disturbances in ecosystems functioning and structure in fire-prone biomes. In recent decades there has been an increase in the number of fire events in Brazilian biomes, especially due to misuse of fire in the land use and ...

Spatial and temporal expansion of global wildland fire activity in response to climate change
Global climatic fire-prone regions were identified, assessing possible future climate change impacts. A general spatial expansion of these regions and a frequency increase of the fire-prone conditions are expected, especially in Boreal regions.
