To better understand fire regimes and their relation to climate in the seasonal tropical forests
of continental Southeast Asia, we developed the first multi‐century tree‐ring based fire …

Infrequent, high‐intensity disturbances can have profound impacts on forested landscapes,
changing forest structure and altering relative species abundance. However, due to their …

Forest encroachment into savannas is a widespread phenomenon, the rate of which may
depend on soil conditions, species composition or changes in stand structure. As savanna …

Interactions between vegetation and sediment in post‐fire landscapes play a critical role in
sediment connectivity. Prior research has focused on the effects of vegetation removal from …

Tree mortality can fundamentally affect soils, which in turn shape forest regeneration and
dynamics. Here, we quantify the dynamics of soil volumes associated with tree mortality …

Background Tree hollows are an important habitat resource used by arboreal fauna for
nesting and denning. Hollows form when trees mature and are exposed to decay and …

Background Disturbances are crucial in determining forest biodiversity, dynamics, and
ecosystem functions. Surface fire is a significant disturbance in tropical forests, but research …

The effects of forest fires on tree recruitment dynamics in tropical forests is important for
predicting forest dynamics and ecosystem function in Southeast Asia. To our knowledge, no …

Fire is a common disturbance in many biomes, with both beneficial and detrimental effects
on soil biology, which largely depend on fire intensity. However, little is known about the …

This study examines the effects of the change in the shape of landscape patches, known as
landscape structure, on ecological susceptibility, which is defined using the object-oriented …
