Fire is a powerful ecological and evolutionary force that regulates organismal traits,
population sizes, species interactions, community composition, carbon and nutrient cycling …

Aim Global change factors, such as warming, heatwaves, droughts and land‐use changes,
are intensifying fire regimes (defined here as increasing frequency or severity of fires) in …

Disentangling species strategies that confer resilience to natural disturbances is key to
conserving and restoring savanna ecosystems. Fire is a recurrent disturbance in savannas …

In the context of ongoing climatic warming, forest landscapes face increasing risk of
conversion to non‐forest vegetation through alteration of their fire regimes and their post‐fire …

Several decades of frustrated attempts to prevent fires in the Brazilian Savanna (Cerrado)
have led to deleterious ecological and management consequences. In 2014, the first …

Abstract The Cerrado Domain of central Brazil houses the largest extent of savanna in the
Neotropics, but despite its simple characterization as a giant savanna, it contains …

As climatic changes continue to drive increases in the frequency and severity of forest fires, it
is critical to understand all of the factors influencing the risk of forest fire. Using a spatial …

Ongoing changes in fire regimes have the potential to drive widespread shifts in Earth's
vegetation. Plant traits and vital rates provide insight into vulnerability to fire‐driven …

Forest–grassland mosaics, with abrupt boundaries between the two vegetation types, occur
across the globe. Fire and herbivory are widely considered primary drivers that maintain …

Biased understanding of savanna biogeography Grasslands and savannas exist across a
wide range of climates. Mesic savannas, with highly variable tree densities, are particularly …
