Changes in vegetation structure and fuel characteristics along post-fire succession promote alternative stable states and positive fire–vegetation feedbacks
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2018-03)
Aims: Structural and compositional changes along post-fire succession modify plant community proneness to burn (flammability). The dominant regeneration strategies and life forms, and their interactions along post-fire ...
Potential conditions for fire occurrence in vegetation in the Peruvian Andes
(CSIRO Publishing, 2021-10-12)
Fire activity in the Peruvian Andes has increased significantly in recent decades, but climatic parameters associated with drought, which may indirectly contribute to the occurrence of severe forest fires, have not yet ...
Influence of fuel conditions on the occurrence, propagation and duration of wildland fires: A regional approach
(2015-09)
Wildfires affect Earth's surface every year. Fuels conditions influence fire occurrence and behavior; therefore, their characterization is important for fire risk studies. We analyzed vegetation conditions influencing fires ...
Fire affects galling insect communities through vegetation changes in a subtropical seasonally semiarid forest
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2021-12)
Fire is one of the main factors shaping vegetation characteristics around the world, with deep and complex effects on higher levels of the food web and ecosystem functioning. Specialist insects tend to be more vulnerable ...
Wildfires in Chile: A review
(Elsevier, 2016)
This paper reviews the literature examining the wildfire phenomenon in Chile. Since ancient times, Chile's wildfires have shaped the country's landscape, but today, as in many other parts of the world, the fire regime - ...
Post-Fire effects in wetland environment: Landscape assessment of plant coverage and soil recovery in the Paraná River Delta marshes, Argentina
(Asociation for Fire Ecology, 2012-08)
During 2008, under a region-wide drought, there were a large number of simultaneous fires in the Paraná River Delta region: the most affected vegetation was in marshes dominated by Schoenoplectus californicus (C.A.Mey.) ...
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 ...
Short-term changes caused by fire and mowing in Brazilian Campos grasslands with different long-term fire histories
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2012-06-01)
Questions: What are the main short- term changes in vegetation structure after fire and mowing in Campos grasslands? Are there differences in functional vegetation group responses between sites with diverse fire histories ...

Fire and vegetation: Introduction to the special issue
(2022-01-01)
Fires are widespread disturbance events with many implications for different aspects of plant persistence and vegetation properties. Changing fire regimes can profoundly affect vegetation dynamics and ecosystem properties. ...
