Fire Seasonality, Seasonal Temperature Cues, Dormancy Cycling, and Moisture Availability Mediate Post-fire Germination of Species With Physiological Dormancy [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Fire seasonality (the time of year of fire occurrence) has important implications for a wide range of demographic processes in plants, including seedling recruitment.

How changing fire management policies affect fire seasonality and livelihoods. [PDF]

open access: yesAmbio, 2021
There is a long history of fire management in African savannas, but knowledge of historical and current use of fire is scarce in savanna-woodland biomes. This study explores past and present fire management practices and perceptions of the Khwe (former hunter-gatherers) and Mbukushu (agropastoralists) communities as well as government and non ...

Changes in the Seasonality of Fire Activity and Fire Weather in Portugal: Is the Wildfire Season Really Longer?

open access: yesMeteorology, 2023
The length of the fire season has not garnered much attention within the broad field of meteorological research on fire regime change. Fire weather research on the Iberian Peninsula is no exception in this case; there is no solid understanding on fire season lengthening in Portugal, although recent decades do suggest ongoing transitions.

Seasonality of Fire Weather Strongly Influences Fire Regimes in South Florida Savanna-Grassland Landscapes [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Fire seasonality, an important characteristic of fire regimes, commonly is delineated using seasons based on single weather variables (rainfall or temperature). We used nonparametric cluster analyses of a 17-year (1993-2009) data set of weather variables

Mechanisms of Fire Seasonality Effects on Plant Populations

open access: yesTrends in Ecology and Evolution, 2019
Altered fire regimes resulting from climate change and human activity threaten many terrestrial ecosystems. However, we lack a holistic and detailed understanding of the effects of altering one key fire regime component - season of fire. Altered fire seasonality can strongly affect post-fire recovery of plant populations through interactions with plant

Contemporary Fire Regimes of the Subtropical Everglades [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Data
Fire is a fundamental force that shapes ecosystems by influencing vegetation composition, succession, and structural diversity. Fire regimes, defined by fire frequency, intensity, and seasonality, vary across ecosystems and are critical in fire-dependent

Role of Seasonality and Fire in Regulating the Enzymatic Activities in Soils Covered by Different Vegetation in a Mediterranean Area

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
As they quickly respond to environmental conditions, soil enzymes, involved in nutrient cycles, are considered good indicators of soil quality. The Mediterranean area is a peculiar environment for climatic conditions and for fire frequency.

Occurrence, Area Burned, and Seasonality Trends of Forest Fires in the Natural Subregions of Alberta over 1959–2021

open access: yesFire, 2023
We analyzed the distribution and number of forest fire occurrences, burned areas, and seasonality, and their trends of human- and lightning-caused small (

Analysis and Forecasting of Fire incidence in Davao City

open access: yesRecoletos Multidisciplinary Research Journal, 2020
Fire incidence is a big problem for every local government unit in the Philippines. The two most detrimental effects of fire incidence are economic loss and loss of life.
