Journal ArticleDOI
Fire and The Australian Flora: A Review
TL;DR: Fire is a natural environmental variable over most of Australia that tends to be self propagating and occurs for extremely limited periods in any one locality; may have devastating effects; occurs over a wide range of environments and plant communities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bushfires 'down under': patterns and implications of contemporary Australian landscape burning
Jeremy Russell-Smith,Cameron Yates,Peter J. Whitehead,Richard Smith,Ron Craig,Grant E. Allan,Richard Thackway,Ian Frakes,Shane Cridland,Mick Meyer,A. Malcolm Gill +10 more
TL;DR: A comprehensive assessment of continental-scale fire patterning (1997-2005) derived from ∼ 1k m 2 AdvancedVery High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) imagery shows that fire activity occurs predominantly in the savanna landscapes of monsoonal northern Australia as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fire research for conservation management in tropical savannas: Introducing the Kapalga fire experiment
Alan N. Andersen,R. W. Braithwaite,Garry D. Cook,Laurie K. Corbett,Richard J. Williams,Michael M. Douglas,A. Malcolm Gill,Samantha A. Setterfield,Warren J. Müller +8 more
TL;DR: The Kapalga fire experiment as mentioned in this paper has been applied at a landscape scale with replication, and ecological responses can be related directly to measurements of fire intensity, timing and frequency, as critical issues.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fire regimes in mountain ash forest: evidence from forest age structure, extinction models and wildlife habitat
TL;DR: The mean interval between tree-killing fires in mountain ash (Eucalyptus regnans F. Muell) forest was inferred from information on the age structure of unlogged forest, the prevalence of mountain ash trees in the landscape, and on the abundance of live and dead hollow-bearing trees.
Journal ArticleDOI
Large fires, fire effects and the fire-regime concept
A. Malcolm Gill,Grant E. Allan +1 more
TL;DR: The current trend toward fire-regime control through fuel treatment, including management (prescribed) burning, and fire suppression may be expected to continue as mentioned in this paper, which can be seen as a sign of the changing nature of fire regimes.
