Disaster Cross‐Sector Collaboration Networks: Evidence from Four Historical Disasters

Risk, Hazards &Crisis in Public Policy, Volume 17, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT By conducting content analysis and social network analysis of media coverage of four historical disasters (i.e., the 2011 Joplin Tornado, 2013 Moore Tornado, 2017 Hurricane Harvey, and the 2023 Maui wildfire), this study uncovered characteristics of cross‐sector disaster collaboration networks.

Long‐term comparison shows protected and non‐protected forests differ in harvesting, but not in wildfires or drought‐driven dieback

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 2, February 2026.
Lower forest harvesting in Natura 2000 sites may align with socio‐economic barriers often claimed by local communities, but protection does not influence vulnerability to other disturbances. In a general scenario of reduced forest harvesting in the region, we argue that differences in harvesting due to protection are statistically significant but ...

Fire regimen and spread of plants naturalized in central Chile Régimen de incendios y expansión de plantas naturalizadas en Chile central

Revista Chilena de Historia Natural, 2011
Setting fires is an old practice of land management in the Mediterranean region of central Chile. Fire in the region is currently of predominantly human origin and previously published material suggests that the scheduling of these activities is ...

Media trends and public interest in wildfires in Tuscany, Italy

Geographical Research, Volume 64, Issue 1, February 2026.
Wildfires have increased in intensity and frequency due to climatic and socio‐economic changes. This study analyses media habits about wildfires in Italy, particularly Tuscany. Findings show gaps and correlations between local news and wildfire events, allowing identification of critical areas where deeper risk perception analysis should be conducted ...

Trait‐based species selection for restoration: A case study from tropical landscapes dominated by bracken

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 1, January 2026.
Our results can be used by stakeholders to select the species best suited for active restoration projects in bracken‐dominated areas throughout the tropical region. Furthermore, our trait‐based approach, which considers seedling performance in disturbed areas, can serve as a guide for species selection in restoration programmes in other disturbed ...

Diversity modulates above‐ground productivity in response to disturbances: The case of Iberian forests

Journal of Ecology, Volume 113, Issue 12, Page 3605-3621, December 2025.
We analysed whether forest productivity responses to disturbances were modulated by structural and functional diversity, as well as by functional dominance, and whether these responses vary among functional groups. Forest diversity can mitigate the negative effects of disturbances on productivity.
