Fungal diversity and community composition responses to the reintroduction of fire in a non-managed Mediterranean shrubland ecosystem

Forest Ecosystems, 2023
Background: More than a decade of fire suppression has changed the structure of fire-adapted shrubland ecosystems in Spain's National Parks, which are now at extreme risk of uncontrolled wildfires. Prescribed burning can mitigate the risk of wildfires by

Burning in banksia woodlands: How does the fire-free period influence reptile communities?

, 2012
Fire is an important management tool for both hazard reduction burning and maintenance of biodiversity. The impact of time since last fire on fauna is an important factor to understand as land managers often aim for prescribed burning regimes with ...

Beyond Presumptions: Toward Mechanistic Clarity in Metal‐Free Carbon Catalysts for Electrochemical H2O2 Production via Data Science

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Metal‐free carbon catalysts enable the sustainable synthesis of hydrogen peroxide via two‐electron oxygen reduction; however, active site complexity continues to hinder reliable interpretation. This review critiques correlation‐based approaches and highlights the importance of orthogonal experimental designs, standardized catalyst passports ...

Effects of prescribed burning on carbon accumulation in two paired vegetation sites in subtropical China

Forest Ecosystems, 2019
Background Prescribed burning is a common practice of site preparation before afforestation in subtropical forests. However, the effects of prescribed burning on carbon (C) dynamics of an ecosystem are poorly understood. Therefore, a Eucalyptus urophylla
