Many forest types globally have been subject to an increase in the frequency of, and area
burnt by, high‐severity wildfire. Here we explore the role that previous disturbance has …

Abstract Forests of the Australian Alps (SE Australia) are considered some of the most
vulnerable to climate change in the country, with ecosystem collapse considered likely for …

The subdued landscapes of the forest region of south-west Western Australia, Australia,
belie a remarkable heterogeneity of floristic assemblages across a variety of spatial and …

Forest wildfire impact is widely believed to increase with time since disturbance, presenting
a dilemma for the persistence of fire‐sensitive species. However, in south‐western Australia …

Recent landscape‐scale wildfires in eastern Australia have made apparent the need for a
greater understanding of the flammability dynamics of forested ecosystems. Fire severity is a …

Impacts of wildfire on humans are increasing as urban populations continue to expand into
fire prone landscapes. Effective fire risk management can only be achieved if we understand …

Alternative stable state theory is often used to explain the occurrence of flammable
vegetation adjacent to less flammable vegetation where fire regimes mediate the shift …

Global change has contributed to substantial vegetation shifts across many ecosystems
through altered fire-vegetation feedbacks, but the direction, strength, and mechanism of …

There are multiple pathways for vegetation to change following disturbances. Understanding
those post‐disturbance pathways is critical for managing wildfire risk since vegetation is fuel …

Implementation of wildfire‐and climate‐adaptation strategies in seasonally dry forests of
western North America is impeded by numerous constraints and uncertainties. After more …
