Toward a functional understanding of novel fire regimes in tropical forests. [PDF]
Am J BotAbstract Climate change and land‐use alterations are driving forest fires to unprecedented frequencies and intensities worldwide. Even wet tropical forests—historically rarely subjected to fire—are increasingly experiencing fire disturbances. The impact of wildfires on these forests is likely large, since many of their tree species are not adapted to ...

Finding floral and faunal species richness optima among active fire regimes. [PDF]
Conserv BiolAbstract Changing fire regimes have important implications for biodiversity and challenge traditional conservation approaches that rely on historical conditions as proxies for ecological integrity. This historical‐centric approach becomes increasingly tenuous under climate change, necessitating direct tests of environmental impacts on biodiversity.

Past human‐induced ecological legacies as a driver of modern Amazonian resilience
People and Nature, Volume 5, Issue 5, Page 1415-1429, October 2023., 2023 Abstract People have modified landscapes throughout the Holocene (the last c. 11,700 years) by modifying soils, burning forests, cultivating and domesticating plants, and directly and indirectly enriched and depleted plant abundances. These activities also took place in Amazonia, which is the largest contiguous piece of rainforest in the world, and for

Mice population dynamics and structure over time and space after wildfires
Journal of Zoology, Volume 321, Issue 2, Page 128-141, October 2023., 2023 Wood and Algerian mice live syntopically within burnt areas, the former species being more abundant. In this study, adult females were recaptured more often over time, while males were found to cover greater distances. We found that recovery strategies of Mediterranean rodents are mainly driven by ex situ immigration from unburnt areas.
