Prescribed Fire Effects on Dalmation Toadflax

Journal of Range Management, 2003
Prescribed fires are important for rangeland restoration and affect plant community composition and species interactions. Many rangeland plant communities have been, or are under the threat of noxious weed invasion, however there is little information on how fire effects weeds.

Prescribed Fire — Its Place in Reforestation [PDF]

The Forestry Chronicle, 1970
Forest fires have played an important role in determining the type and composition of forest ecosystems in the temperate region of North America. The close association between fires and forest ecosystems has helped the resource manager to interpret the significance of fire in reforestation, which in turn has induced him to use burning for this ...

Cognitive Maps Reveal Diverse Perceptions of How Prescribed Fire Affects Forests and Communities

Frontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2020
The potential for prescribed fire to address fuel management and forest restoration goals has received considerable attention. However, many wildfire risk mitigation practitioners and researchers consider prescribed fire to be an underutilized tool for ...

Modeling the Soil Response to Rainstorms after Wildfire and Prescribed Fire in Mediterranean Forests

Climate, 2020
The use of the Soil Conservation Service-curve number (SCS-CN) model for runoff predictions after rainstorms in fire-affected forests in the Mediterranean climate is quite scarce and limited to the watershed scale.

Slope position controls prescribed fire effects on soil: a case study in the high-elevation grassland of Itatiaia National Park [PDF]

Revista Brasileira de Ciência do Solo, 2023
There is a need for greater knowledge about the medium- and long-term effects of prescribed fire management on soil in ecosystems prone to wildfires and more vulnerable to climate change.

The Rapid Initial Community Builder (RICB) V1.1 for LANDIS-II

MethodsX
Forest succession, or ecosystem process models, can aid in many land management decisions as they inherently incorporate ecological processes to predict how disturbances impact the resilience of the forest and its potential future structure.

Fire effects on gambel oak in southwestern ponderosa pine-oak forests [PDF]

, 2008
Gambel oak (Quercus gambelii) is ecologically and aesthetically valuable in southwestern ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa) forests. Fire effects on Gambel oak are important because fire may be used in pine-oak forests to manage oak directly or to ...

Tamm review: A meta-analysis of thinning, prescribed fire, and wildfire effects on subsequent wildfire severity in conifer dominated forests of the Western US

Forest Ecology and Management
Increased understanding of how mechanical thinning, prescribed burning, and wildfire affect subsequent wildfire severity is urgently needed as people and forests face a growing wildfire crisis.

Forest structural complexity and ignition pattern influence simulated prescribed fire effects

Fire Ecology
Forest structural characteristics, the burning environment, and the choice of ignition pattern each influence prescribed fire behaviors and resulting fire effects; however, few studies examine the influences and interactions of these factors ...
