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 ...

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 ...

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.

GÉNESIS DE LOS INCENDIOS FORESTALES

Revista Chapingo Serie Ciencias Forestales y del Ambiente, 2012
Hace casi 470 millones de años, durante el periodo Silúrico, comenzaron los incendios forestales en el planeta. La actividad de los incendios ha experimentado altas y bajas en la historia de la Tierra, principalmente relacionadas con cambios en la concentración de oxígeno atmosférico y los niveles de humedad que han caracterizado la evolución del ...

Leaf Size and Shape Interact to Control Flammability: An Experiment With Artificial Leaves Cut From the Large‐Leaved Species Sapranthus palanga

Biotropica, Volume 57, Issue 5, September 2025.
We evaluated the flammability of leaves based on their shape and size. Rectangular and triangular shapes showed high flammability that did not vary with size, while circular shapes had minimal flammability, but it varied with size. These findings indicate that leaf shape and size impact flammability.
