Aim Pyrodiversity is the spatial or temporal variability in fire effects across a landscape.
Multiple ecological hypotheses, when applied to the context of post‐fire systems, suggest …

As our planet emerges into a new epoch in which humans dominate the Earth system, it is
imperative that societies initiate a new phase of responsible environmental stewardship …

Context Changes in abundance following fire are commonly reported for vertebrate species,
but the mechanisms causing these changes are rarely tested. Currently, many species of …

Fire positively and negatively affects food webs across all trophic levels and guilds and
influences a range of ecological processes that reinforce fire regimes, such as nutrient …

Land occupation and management systems have defined fire regimes and landscapes for
millennia. The savanna biome is responsible for 86% of all fire events, contributes to 10% of …

Globally, 15,521 animal species are listed as threatened by the International Union for the
Conservation of Nature, and of these less than 3% have genomic resources that can inform …

Fire can promote biodiversity, but changing patterns of fire threaten species worldwide.
While scientific literature often describes ''inappropriate fire regimes''as a significant threat to …

Conservation scientists and practitioners usually focus on understanding and managing
individual threats to biodiversity. However, threats may interact, making management …

Aim Fire is particularly frequent, complex and contentious in the vast tropical savannas of
northern Australia, where declines in many threatened species are associated with fire, and …

Although savannas are fire-adapted ecosystems, prescribing fire for biodiversity
conservation remains controversial at least in some regions where savannas occur. Faced …
