Forested environments are subject to large and high intensity unplanned fire events, owing
to, among other factors, the high quantity and complex structure of fuel in these …

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 …

Accurate and consistent broad-scale mapping of fire severity is an important resource for fire
management as well as fire-related ecological and climate change research. Remote …

Recent climate changes have increased fire-prone weather conditions in many regions and
have likely affected fire occurrence, which might impact ecosystem functioning …

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 …

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 …

Over the past 15 years, 3 million hectares of forests have been converted into shrublands or
grasslands in the Mediterranean countries of the European Union. Fire and drought are the …

Extreme fire events have increased across south-eastern Australia owing to warmer and
drier conditions driven by anthropogenic climate change. Fuel reduction burning is widely …

Wildfire refugia (unburnt patches within large wildfires) are important for the persistence of
fire‐sensitive species across forested landscapes globally. A key challenge is to identify the …

Quantifying spatio-temporal variation in forest microclimate is important to understand the
habitat associations of some species, identify potential refugia, and manage forests in a …
