Ecological communities are assemblages of species that occur together in space and time.
Their properties include composition, structure, habitat, distribution, biological interactions …

Ecosystem‐level conservation is increasingly important at global, national and local levels.
Many jurisdictions have developed and apply their own protocols for assessing the threat …

Plant invasions of natural communities are commonly associated with reduced species
diversity and altered ecosystem structure and function. This study investigated the effects of …

We investigated the effect of fuel age on the truncation of spread of unplanned fires using a
set of 1473 patches in the Sydney region of Australia. Twenty-two percent of patches derived …

Fire regimes have long‐term effects on ecosystems which can be subtle, requiring study at a
large spatial scale and temporal scale to fully appreciate. The way in which multiple fires …

Fire activity has been found to follow a humped relationship with population density, but the
countervailing drivers and scale effects in this relationship have not previously been teased …

Planned fire is used globally to minimise the risk of unplanned fire, but it is important to
measure the return for effort in terms of the reduction of risk per unit area of planned fire …

Recent landscape‐scale wildfires in eastern Australia have made apparent the need for a
greater understanding of the flammability dynamics of forested ecosystems. Fire severity is a …

Seed fungal endophytes play an important beneficial role in the formation of the seedling
mycobiome and contribute to plant establishment, but can also occur as latent pathogens …

Aim Mire ecosystems are threatened by global climate change but have important roles in
biodiversity conservation, carbon storage, landscape‐scale hydrological function and in …
