Shape determines fire tolerance of seeds in temperate grasslands that are not prone to fire

Perspectives in Plant Ecology, Evolution and Systematics, 2015
Abstract Prescribed burning is an important tool for nature conservation in many parts of the world. It is now also being increasingly proposed as an alternative to traditional management in temperate grasslands that are not naturally fire-prone.

Geophysical-geochemical investigation of fire-prone landfills

Environmental Earth Sciences, 2009
This paper deals with the integration of electrical resistivity tomography and geochemical methods for studying four different fire-prone landfills. Landfill gas composition (CH4, H2S, O2, CO, CO2) and subsurface temperature were measured with the constant net 50 × 50 m from the depth 10–60 cm.

Potential for Future Development on Fire-Prone Lands

Journal of Forestry, 2008
Abstract Most studies of wildland fire and residential development have focused on the cost of firefighting and solutions such as fuel reduction and fire-safe home building. Although some studies quantify the number of homes being built near forests, little research has indicated the potential magnitude of the problem in the future. This

Fire resilience of a rare, freshwater crustacean in a fire‐prone ecosystem and the implications for fire management

Austral Ecology, 2019
AbstractUnderstanding species’ responses to fire regimes, particularly rare or threatened species, is important for land managers tasked with managing for biodiversity. Hickman's Allanaspides (Allanaspides hickmani, Anaspidesidae) is a rare, primitive, shrimp‐like crustacean, with high conservation value.

PyOM characterisation in fire-prone Mediterranean pine forests

2013
Fire is a major disturbance to vegetation and soil and a driving factor of ecosystems in the Mediterranean basin, as up to 90% of all forest fires in the EU occur in Mediterranean countries (De la Rosa et al., 2008). The aboveground vegetation and the soil organic matter (SOM), which is the fuel in soil, are affected in terms of both abundance and ...

The Responses and Survival of Organisms in Fire-Prone Environments

1984
Fire is a widespread, naturally occurring phenomenon of great antiquity, influencing the structure, composition and dynamics of many ecosystems. Within southern Africa, grassland, savanna and fynbos ecosystems in particular are subjected to recurrent fires and fire is considered to have been of major importance in the evolution and maintenance of their
