The Landscape Ecology of Fire

Global warming is expected to change fire regimes, likely increasing the severity and extent of wildfires in many ecosystems around the world.  What will be the landscape-scale effects of these altered fire regimes?  Within what theoretical contexts can we accurately assess these effects? We explore...

520 |a Global warming is expected to change fire regimes, likely increasing the severity and extent of wildfires in many ecosystems around the world.  What will be the landscape-scale effects of these altered fire regimes?  Within what theoretical contexts can we accurately assess these effects? We explore the possible effects of altered fire regimes on landscape patch dynamics, dominant species (tree, shrub, or herbaceous) and succession, sensitive and invasive plant and animal species and communities, and ecosystem function.  Ultimately, we must consider the human dimension: what are the policy and management implications of increased fire disturbance, and what are the implications for human communities?
