DOI: 10.1002/ajb2.70112
Abstract: Abstract Climate change and land‐use alterations are driving forest fires to unprecedented frequencies and intensities worldwide. Even wet tropical forests—historically rarely subjected to fire—are increasingly experiencing fire disturbances. The impact of wildfires on these forests… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10668-024-04489-6
Abstract: Vegetation type is an important component of savannas contributing to changes in soil health. In savanna landscapes, the tree-grass balance is primarily governed by water, nutrients, fire, herbivory, and their interactions. Here we investigated the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.foreco.2018.10.051
Abstract: Abstract The increasing occurrence of large and severe fires in Mediterranean forest ecosystems produces major ecological and socio-economic damage. In this study, we aim to identify the main environmental factors driving fire severity in extreme… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.rse.2017.07.022
Abstract: Knowledge and information of post-fire vegetation recovery are essential for our understanding of ecosystem stability and resilience in response to present and future disturbances. Although previous studies have examined the post-fire vegetation recovery at landscape… read more here.

DOI: 10.15666/aeer/2303_51235132
Abstract: . Wildfires are a complex phenomenon regarding their propagation, mode of action, their effects on the environment, and can be catalysts for ecosystem change. In this context, we studied the current state of the burnt… read more here.
