Many physical, chemical, mineralogical, and biological soil properties can be affected by
forest fires. The effects are chiefly a result of burn severity, which consists of peak …

Soils play an essential role in supporting and sustaining life on this planet. In fire-impacted
environments, fire causes considerable changes to the soil, especially in the various …

Part C has five chapters that cover a wide range of related topics. Chapter 8 analyzes the
effects of fire on the hydrology and nutrient cycling of wetland ecosystems along with …

Trees can influence both the supply and availability of nutrients in the soil. Trees increase
the supply of nutrients within the rooting zone of crops through (1) input of N by biological N …

The biogeochemical and stoichiometric signature of vegetation fire may influence post‐fire
ecosystem characteristics and the evolution of plant 'fire traits'. Phosphorus (P), a potentially …

The most commonly observed change in soil following slash-and-burn clearing of tropical
forest is a short-term increase in nutrient availability. Studies of shifting cultivation commonly …

The aim of this study was to determine the effects of burn severity on soil properties
(chemical, biochemical and microbiological) in fire-prone pine ecosystems three years after …

ABSTRACT A wildfire burned through a previously sampled research site, allowing pre‐and
post‐burn measurements of the forest floor, soils, and soil leaching near Lake Tahoe …

Forest fires are an important disturbance factor in forest ecosystems, and obviously change
the soil environment. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, as a medium and bridge between …

Forested watersheds supply over two thirds of the world's drinking water. The last decade
has seen an increase in the frequency and intensity of wildfires that is threatening these …
