Both fire and predators have strong influences on the population dynamics and behaviour of
animals, and the effects of predators may either be strengthened or weakened by fire …

Earth's rapidly warming climate is propelling us towards an increasingly fire‐prone future.
Currently, knowledge of the extent and characteristics of animal mortality rates during fire …

Planet Earth is entering the age of megafire, pushing ecosystems to their limits and beyond.
While fire causes mortality of animals across vast portions of the globe, scientists are only …

Aim This paper reviews the biogeography of the Australian monsoon tropical biome to
highlight general patterns in the distribution of a range of organisms and their environmental …

Every year large proportions of northern Australia's tropical savanna landscapes are burnt,
resulting in high fire frequencies and short intervals between fires. The dominant fire …

Fire regimes are a major agent of evolution in terrestrial animals. Changing fire regimes and
the capacity for rapid evolution in wild animal populations suggests the potential for rapid …

Abstract Knowledge of how disturbances such as fire shape habitat structure and
composition, and affect animal interactions, is fundamental to ecology and ecosystem …

Prescribed burning is a commonly applied management tool, and there has been
considerable debate over the efficacy of its application. We review data relating to the …

Prescribed burning is used to achieve a variety of silvicultural objectives, including
controlling heavy fuel accumulation, exposing mineral soil, releasing available nutrients for …

This opportunistic study compares the vegetation, fuel loads and vertebrate fauna of part of a
120‐ha block of tropical open forest protected from fire for 23 years, and an adjacent block …
