Assessment of fire reaction and fire resistance of Guadua angustifolia kunth bamboo
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2012)
The main challenge for construction industry today is sustainability. Bamboo has properties that make it sustainable, but its fire behavior remains unknown. This paper presents an exploratory research on fire behavior of ...
A review of fire effects across South American ecosystems: The role of climate and time since fire
(Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2021-12)
Fire is an important driver of ecosystem dynamics worldwide. However, knowledge on broad-scale patterns of ecosystem and organism responses to fires is still scarce. Through a systematic quantitative review of available ...
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.) ...
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 ...
A preliminary study of chemical properties in temperate forest fire of the Chilean Andean range for planning of ecosystems restoration
(Istituto Sperimentale per la Selvicoltura, 2022)
Despite vegetation in fire-prone landscapes having different fire adaptations, a change in the worldwide fire regime could affect all ecosystem processes and systems. In this sense, soil systems play a key role in ecosystems, ...
Impact of using lightweight eco-bricks as enclosures for individual houses of one story on zones of high seismicity
(Inst. de Ciencias de la Construccion Eduardo Torroja, 2017)
Thermal properties and fire resistance of jute-reinforced composites
(Taylor & Francis, 2010-02)
The thermal behaviour, fire resistance and mechanical properties of jute-reinforced composites with vinylester and resol matrix were studied. Organically modified clay was added to the polymeric matrix in order to enhance ...
Long term effects of fire on ectomycorrhizas and soil properties in Nothofagus pumilio forests in Argentina
(Elsevier Science, 2011-08)
The forests of Nothofagus pumilio have historically been affected by forest fires. The effects of fire on certain above and belowground, biotic and abiotic components of these ecosystems have been previously documented, ...
