Responses of plant biomass in the Brazilian Savanna to frequent fires
(Universidade Federal de Minas GeraisBrasilIGC - DEPARTAMENTO DE CARTOGRAFIAUFMG, 2020-11-24)
Variation in biomass allocation and root functional parameters in response to fire history in Brazilian savannas
(2021-01-01)
Fire is a fundamental ecological factor in savannas because it affects vegetation dynamics and ecosystem functioning. However, the effects of fire on below-ground compartments, including biomass and root traits, and their ...
Understorey fire propagation and tree mortality on adjacent areas to an Amazonian deforestation fire
(CSIRO Publishing, 2010-01-01)
Fire characteristics in tropical ecosystems are poorly documented quantitatively in the literature. This paper describes an understorey fire propagating across the edges of a biomass burn of a cleared primary forest. The ...

Does season affect fire behaviour in the Cerrado?
(2017-01-01)
Fire has played an important role in the plant dynamics and diversity of the Cerrado for millions of years. We evaluated fire behaviour in different fire seasons in areas of an open savanna, providing information for fire ...
Fire frequency affects fire behavior in open savannas of the Cerrado
(2021-02-15)
Fire is an environmental factor that helps in shaping plant communities by influencing their structure and function. Frequency is an important component of the fire regime. In tropical savannas, fire frequency is high, ...
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 ...
A recent review of fire behavior and fire effects on native vegetation in Central Chile
(Elsevier, 2020)
Central Chile experienced a very extended and devastating fire season during 2016e17. After 3 years, here we present the results of an analysis of behavior of the wildfires occurred in that season.We used a modeling approach ...
Fire and grazing differentially affect aerial biomass and species composition in Andean grasslands
(Gauthier-Villars/Editions Elsevier, 2011-04)
Grazing and fire have been the most common disturbances in many grasslands ecosystems for many centuries. However, some mountain regions are currently experiencing a decrease in land use, and therefore in frequency or ...
