Direct effects of climate change (i.e. temperature rise, changes in seasonal precipitation, wind patterns and atmospheric stability) affect fire regim...

Shrubland ecosystems are often inherently flammable due to a canopy structure favourable for fire propagation. At the same time, the fuel bed is not s...

Indigenous people have been managing fire-prone landscapes for millennia, especially in tropical savannas, thereby maintaining carbon stocks and pyrod...

Rapid environmental change is placing increasing pressure on the survival of many species globally. Ecological refuges can mitigate the impacts of cha...

Increased incidence of landscape fire and pollinator declines with co-extinctions of dependent plant species are both globally significant. Fire can a...

The influence of fire upon biodiversity has been investigated in many ecosystems under a wide range of environmental conditions. However, there is no ...

Climate change is driving changes in fire frequency and intensity, making it more urgent for conservation managers to understand how species and ecosy...

Current predictions about climate change and its impact on fire regimes have spurred research on how increasing fire frequencies will affect the popul...

In mesic savannas worldwide, trees experience frequent fires, almost all set by humans. Management fires are set to reduce or enhance tree cover. Succ...

Growth-stage optimization (GSO) offers a new approach to biodiversity conservation in fire-prone regions by estimating the optimal distribution of veg...
