Effects of repeated fire on Florida oak-saw palmetto scrubSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 18 - Trang 1-17 - 2022
Paul A. Schmalzer, Tammy E. Foster
The dominant species of Florida oak-saw palmetto scrub sprout after burning from
belowground rhizomes or fire-resistant aboveground buds with rapid
reestablishment of cover. Responses to single fires are well documented;
however, responses to repeated fires may differ. Fire return intervals,
differences among sites, and species may influence responses. We used transect
data from four sites on Kenn... hiện toàn bộ
Burning at the Edge: Integrating Biophysical and Eco-Cultural Fire Processes in Canada’s Parks and Protected AreasSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 7 - Trang 74-106 - 2011

Currently, high intensity, large-area lightning fires that burn during droughts
dominate Canada’s fire regimes. However, studies from several disciplines
clearly show that humans historically ignited burns within this matrix of large
fires. Two approaches for fire research and management have arisen from this
pattern: a “large-fire biophysical paradigm” related to lightning-ignited fires,
and an “... hiện toàn bộ
Post-Fire Recovery of Eucalypt-Dominated Vegetation Communities in the Sydney Basin, AustraliaSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 12 - Trang 53-79 - 2016
Jessica T. Heath, Chris J. Chafer, Thomas F. A. Bishop, Floris F. Van Ogtrop
Monitoring landscape-scale vegetation responses of resprouter species to
wildfire is helpful in explaining post-wildfire recovery. Several previous
Australian studies have investigated the temporal recovery of eucalypt
obligate-seeder communities (which have a significantly delayed revegetation
response), but little research has been conducted for resprouter communities. In
this study, we found th... hiện toàn bộ
Assessment of forest fire severity and land surface temperature using Google Earth Engine: a case study of Gujarat State, IndiaSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - - 2024

Forest fires are a recurring issue in many parts of the world, including India.
These fires can have various causes, including human activities (such as
agricultural burning, campfires, or discarded cigarettes) and natural factors
(such as lightning). The present study presents a comprehensive and advanced
methodology for assessing wildfire susceptibility by integrating diverse
environmental varia... hiện toàn bộ
Native Bunchgrass Response to Prescribed Fire in Ungrazed Mountain Big Sagebrush EcosystemsSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 6 - Trang 86-96 - 2010
Lisa M. Ellsworth, J. Boone Kauffman
Fire was historically a dominant ecological process throughout mountain big
sagebrush (Artemisia tridentata Nutt. ssp. vaseyana [Rydb.] Beetle) ecosystems
of western North America, and the native biota have developed many adaptations
to persist in a regime typified by frequent fires. Following spring and fall
prescribed fires conducted in sites of different ecological conditions at the
Lava Beds N... hiện toàn bộ
Impacts of a single fire event on large, old trees in a grass-invaded arid river systemSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 17 - Trang 1-13 - 2021
Christine A. Schlesinger, Erin L. Westerhuis
Large old trees are keystone structures of terrestrial ecosystems that provide
unique habitat resources for wildlife. Their widespread decline worldwide has
serious implications for biodiversity and ecosystem integrity. In arid regions,
large trees are relatively uncommon and often restricted to areas with elevated
soil moisture and nutrients. Introduced grasses, now pervasive in many dryland

Blanket bog vegetation response to wildfire and drainage suggests resilience to low severity, infrequent burningSpringer Science and Business Media LLC -
Roxane Andersen, Paula Fernández‐García, Alice Martin-Walker, Daniela Regina Klein, Chris Marshall, David J. Large, Robert M. Hughes, Mark H. Hancock
Abstract Background In 2019, a wildfire impacted an area of blanket bog and wet
heath > 60 km2 in the Flow Country peatlands of northern Scotland, a site of
global significance. Unusually the footprint of the wildfire included discrete
areas of degraded, restored, and near-natural blanket bogs. Following the
wildfire, we surveyed vegetation in 387 quadrats in burnt and unburnt areas. The
study aim... hiện toàn bộ
Fire-type heat increases the germination of Cistaceae seeds in contrast to summer heatSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 20 - Trang 1-5 - 2024
Byron B. Lamont, Geoffrey E. Burrows, Juli G. Pausas
Our analyses of data in Luna et al. (Fire Ecology 19:52, 2023) do not support
the proposal that dormancy release of the hard seeds in 12 species of
Cistaceae is a “two-step process” involving high summer temperatures followed by
fire-type heat. The reverse is true: subjection to a month of daily alternating
temperatures of 50/20 °C (summer heat) is more likely to induce dormancy among
initially so... hiện toàn bộ
