Assessing Fire Severity in Semiarid Environments with the DNBR and RDNBR Indices
(Global Journals, 2019-03-31)
Available remote sensing historical Landsat TM images allow identifying of first order effects of wildfires also in huge and inaccessible regions. In this paper the usefulness of the best known satellitederived severity ...
Fire effects on the soil seed bank and post-fire resilience of a semi-arid shrubland in central Argentina
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2018-02)
Soil seed bank is an important source of resilience of plant communities who suffered disturbances. We analysed the effect of an intense fire in the soil seed bank of a semi-arid shrubland of Córdoba Argentina. We asked ...
Economic susceptibility of fire-prone landscapes in natural protected areas of the southern Andean Range
(Elsevier, 2018)

(Elsevier B.V., 2014-09-01)
Tapia woodland vegetation is a remnant of Madagascar sclerophyllous forest that has developed under the selective pressure of fire and is dominated by the endemic tree Uapaca bojeri (Phyllanthaceae), locally named tapia. ...
Response of ferrite, bainite, martensite, and retained austenite to a fire cycle in a fire-resistant steel
(2021-12-01)
Understanding the kinetics of microstructural degradation during the event of a fire is of major relevance to future optimization of fire-resistant steels (FRS). In this work, we use in situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction ...
