Drivers of fire occurrence in a mountainous Brazilian cerrado savanna: Tracking long-term fire regimes using remote sensing
(2017-07-01)
Fire is a natural disturbance in savannas, and defines vegetation physiognomy and structure, often influencing species diversity. Fire activity is determined by a wide range of factors, including long and short term climatic ...
Pinus contorta invasion changes forest fuel properties and could impact fire regimes in patagonia
(2016)
Invasive woody plants can change fire regimes through modifications of fuel properties, these changes
in fire-prone environments, could potentially impact the fire regime. In south-central and south Chile the
invasion of ...
Fire temperature effects on perennial grasses from northwestern Patagonian grasslands
(Springer Tokyo, 2015-01)
Post-fire recovery of perennial plants depends on their capacity to regrow from surviving meristems. Plants are adapted to a particular fire regime, which can be altered by human activities and climatic change. Therefore, ...
Soil fertility shapes fire activity across Mediterranean-type climate regions
(Wiley, 2023)
Aim:To quantify the role of soil fertility in the spatial variability of fire activity and to identify the mechanisms that drive this variability. Location:The five Mediterranean-type climate regions of the world.Time ...
Modulation of Fire Regimes by Vegetation and Site Type in Southwestern Patagonia Since 13 ka
(Frontiers Media SA, 2018-04)
The degree to which vegetation and site type have influenced fire regimes through the Holocene has not been investigated in detail in the temperate ecosystems of southern Patagonia. Here we present a first attempt using a ...
Fire frequency effects on soil and pollinators: what shapes sexual plant reproduction?
(Springer, 2017-12)
Increased fire frequency can significantly erode both soil properties and plant–pollinator interactions affecting plant reproductive success but they have seldom been assessed simultaneously. Here, we evaluate soil properties, ...
Dendroecological potential of shrubs for reconstructing fire history at landscape scale in Mediterranean-type climate grasslands: the case of Fabiana imbricata
(Elsevier Gmbh, 2015-01)
Fire recurrently affects Mediterranean-type climate (MTC) regions causing major implications on the structure and dynamics of vegetation. In these regions, it is important to know the fire regime for which reliable fire ...
Fire history in Andean Araucaria-Nothofagus forests: coupled influences of past human land-use and climate on fire regimes in north-west Patagonia
(CSIRO, 2020)
Historical fire regimes are critical for understanding the potential effects of changing climate and human land-use on forest landscapes. Fire is a major disturbance process affecting the Andean Araucaria forest landscape ...
Contrasting effects of fire frequency on plant traits of three dominant perennial herbs from Chaco Serrano
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2016-02)
Fire frequencies are currently increasing inmany regions across the world as a result of anthropic activities, affecting ecological processes and plant population dynamics. Fire can generate important changes in soil ...
Fire regimes and vegetation responses in two Mediterranean-climate regions
(Sociedad de Biología de Chile, 2004)
