When tradition burns: Misinterpreting prescribed fire across the science–society gap in Iberia

open access: yesEcological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 3, July–September 2026.
Prescribed fire is a scientifically grounded management tool whose benefits depend on specific ecological and operational conditions. This Perspective examines how these benefits may be reinterpreted beyond their original context and proposes a framework to improve the translation of ecological knowledge into environmental decision‐making.

Biological legacies influence seedling survival and growth in post‐fire restoration of Patagonian Nothofagus pumilio forests

open access: yesEcological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 3, July–September 2026.
In post‐fire subantarctic forests of Torres del Paine National Park, nucleation‐based reforestation of Nothofagus pumilio was evaluated over 5 years to assess how the identity, proximity, and lateral coverage of biological legacies influence seedling survival and growth.

Recovery of Seed Quality and Germination Success Following Severe Wildfires in Araucaria araucana Forests of the Southern Andes

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
We assessed post‐fire germination of Araucaria araucana in the southern Andes and found that seed viability and germination increased markedly (from 65% to 90%) between 1 and 8 years after a severe wildfire. Improved germination at longer time‐since‐fire reflects a recovery of reproductive capacity in this ecologically and culturally significant ...

Prescribed burning shows minor impacts on black pine needle terpenes and pine processionary moth larval survival

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 7, July 2026.
Our results highlight that prescribed burning in sub‐Mediterranean pine forests does not affect their resistance to PPM in the short term, either positively or negatively, indicating that it can be implemented to reduce wildfire hazard without influencing forest susceptibility to future PPM outbreaks.

Modelo espacial de risco de incêndio intraurbano: fatores de população e carga de incêndio

open access: yesTerritorium: Revista Portuguesa de riscos, prevenção e segurança, 2020
Embora os incêndios urbanos façam centenas de vítimas fatais e causem inúmeros prejuízos materiais a cada ano e em todo o mundo, poucos estudos se dedicam à formulação de um modelo simples de estimação do risco de incêndios urbanos.
