COMPARISON BETWEEN DIFFERENT VERSIONS OF INPE'S FIRE RISK MODEL FOR THE BRAZILIAN BIOMES [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2020 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 ...

Epicormic Resprouting in Fire-Prone Ecosystems [PDF]
Trends in Plant Science, 2017 Many plants resprout from basal buds after disturbance, and this is common in shrublands subjected to high-intensity fires. However, resprouting after fire from epicormic (stem) buds is globally far less common. Unlike basal resprouting, post-fire epicormic resprouting is a key plant adaptation for retention of the arborescent skeleton after fire ...

Kajian Pencegahan dan Penanggulangan Kebakaran pada Pasar Tradisional Lawang
RUAS, 2021 This research starts from the market paradigm associated with dirty, slum, exceeding capacity so it is prone to fire. How do you solve this problem? This study discusses what elements are improving and managing disasters in traditional markets.

Spatial and temporal expansion of global wildland fire activity in response to climate change
Nature Communications, 2022 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.

Fire-Proneness as a Prerequisite for the Evolution of Fire-Adapted Traits [PDF]
Trends in Plant Science, 2017 Fire as a major evolutionary force has been disputed because it is considered to lack supporting evidence. If a trait has evolved in response to selection by fire then the environment of the plant must have been fire-prone before the appearance of that trait.

A comparison of land cover maps to define vegetation classes of fire risk in Brazil
Biodiversidade Brasileira, 2019 Natural fires are essential in the structure and functioning of many ecosystems in the world. Some vegetation types are more vulnerable to fire, e.g.tropical forests, whereas others are fire dependent, like savannas.

Rainforest bird communities threatened by extreme fire
Global Ecology and Conservation, 2022 Fire occurs naturally in many ecosystems and is predicted to increase in frequency and severity with climate change. The 2019–2020 Australian bushfire season was extreme, unprecedented in scale and severity, burning almost 19 million ha.

Allelopathic Mechanisms in Fire-Prone Ecosystems
Turkish Journal of Agriculture - Food Science and Technology, 2021 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 metabolites and fires.

Animal movements in fire‐prone landscapes
Biological Reviews, 2018 ABSTRACTMovement is a trait of fundamental importance in ecosystems subject to frequent disturbances, such as fire‐prone ecosystems. Despite this, the role of movement in facilitating responses to fire has received little attention. Herein, we consider how animal movement interacts with fire history to shape species distributions.
