Calluna-dominated heaths occur throughout Europe but are in decline across their range. There is growing interest in using prescribed burning for thei...
Read moreFire is important for the maintenance and conservation of African savanna ecosystems. Despite the importance of fire intensity as a key element of the...
Read moreThe behaviour of wildland fire in spatially heterogeneous landscapes was simulated using a model (PYROCART) that integrates the Rothermel fire spread ...
Read moreSouth African fynbos vegetation, principally Protea repens and P. neriifolia, is fire-prone and susceptible to invasion by alien shrubs. Changes in bi...
Read moreIn a study of 14 experimental fires in tall open sclerophyllous shrubland in 2 state forests, rates of spread ranged from 0.04 to 0.89 m/s, flame leng...
Read moreBiodiversity loss is often attributable to multiple interacting pressures that are moderated across environmental gradients. These processes contribut...
Read moreThis pilot study examined wildfire events at two National Nature Reserves (NNR) and a site designated as a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) ...
Read moreExperimental fires were used to determine the influence of fire intensity and subcomponents of intensity (fuel consumption and rate of spread) on soil...
Read moreSpatio-temporal fire regimes are likely to shift with changes in land use and climate. Such a shift in the disturbance regime has been proposed from r...
Read moreShrubland ecosystems are often inherently flammable due to a canopy structure favourable for fire propagation. At the same time, the fuel bed is not s...
