Though observations on re-colonisation of post-fire sites in the Mediterranean Basin are
plentiful, there still is an ongoing debate on the interrelation of fire regimes and species traits …

Intercropping is the system of simultaneously growing two or more crops on the same land
area with a definite row arrangement. However, it is very much important to ensure that …

Aims Areas affected by wildfire comprise spatially complex mosaics of burned patches in
which a wide range of burn severities coexist. Rapid diagnosis of the different levels of soil …

The effects of swidden cultivation on carbon storage and soil quality are outlined and
compared to the effects of the intensified production systems that swidden systems of …

Wildfires affect ecosystems depending on the fire regime. Long-term studies are needed to
understand the ecological role played by fire, especially as regards its impact on soils. The …

The capacity of different microbial groups to recolonise soil after a fire event will be decisive
in determining the microbial community after the fire. Microbial recovery after a wildfire that …

Given the observed heterogeneity in fire severity produced within wildfires, we asked to what
extent this heterogeneity might affect post-fire regeneration. For this purpose, we studied the …

Ecosystem succession and biodiversity change associated with grassland fires are crucial
for the patterns and dynamics of ecosystem functioning and services. The reactions to fire by …

Fire is a crucial event regulating the structure and functioning of many ecosystems. Yet few
studies have focused on how fire affects taxonomic and functional diversities of soil …

In many tropical cultivation systems, fallowing is a prerequisite for maintaining long-term
plant-available nutrient pools and crop yields. This study examines the relationships …
