Fire can affect soil properties depending on a number of factors including fire severity and
soil type. Aggregate stability (AS) refers to soil structure resilience in response to external …

Wildfires increased dramatically in frequency and extent in the European Mediterranean
region from the 1960s, aided by a general warming and drying trend, but driven primarily by …

Forest fires are a major environmental concern, especially in the semiarid Mediterranean
regions, where the long dry and hot summers and mild winters favor outbreaks of wildfires …

A field study was conducted in order to study the effects of different wildfire severities on [1]
soil organic matter content,[2] soil water repellency, and [3] aggregate stability;[4] the …

The study of soil water repellency has received increasing attention by the scientific
community in recent years since it has been found to be a much more widespread property …

Los ecosistemas mediterráneos son susceptibles a los incendios forestales y han
evolucionado con la recurrencia de este factor ecológico natural desde el Plioceno. Con el …

The objectives of this research are the following:[1] to study the persistence and intensity of
water repellency in soil samples (0–5 cm deep) collected under different plant species,[2] to …

Mediterranean forests are frequently subject to wildfires, inducing risks of high runoff and
loss of nutrient-rich topsoil. The mechanisms influencing these post-fire effects are spatially …

This work, aside from being a classical discussion on the processes of rubefaction and
illuviation, is an attempt to cross the abundant literature on red Mediterranean soils (RMSs) …

Water repellency (WR) is a common soil property in many fire-affected ecosystems, but it
also occurs in long-unburned terrain. It can vary in space at different scales (between point …
