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, ...

Humans can alter fire dynamics in grassland systems by changing fire frequency, fire seasonality and fuel conditions. These changes have effects on vegetation structure and recovery, species composition, and ecosystem ...

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, ...

We used dendroecological techniques to date fire scars in woody species growing in a subtropical savanna of the Argentine Chaco dry forests, and to explore the temporal trends of fire with rainfall variability at different ...

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 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 ...

Fire frequencies are currently increasing in many regions a cross the world as a result of anthropic activities, affecting ecological processes and plant population dynamics. Fire can generate important changes in soil ...

Fires are a recurrent disturbance in Semiarid Chaco mountains of central Argentina. The interaction of multiple factors generates variable patterns offire occurrence in space and time. Understanding the dominantfire drivers ...

The study was undertaken to quantify the effect of different controlled fire frequencies on foliar cover, density, individual basal area, and mortality of the most common perennial grass species in the semi-arid rangelands ...
