Fire history in northern patagonia: the roles of humans and climatic variation
TL;DR: The effects of humans and climatic variation on fire history in northern Patagonia, Argentina, were examined by dating fire scars on 458 trees at 21 sites in rain forests of Fitzroya cupressoides and xeric woodlands of Austrocedrus chilensis from 39° to 43° S latitude as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Wildfires and climate change push low-elevation forests across a critical climate threshold for tree regeneration.

TL;DR: It is found that climate change combined with high severity fire is leading to increasingly fewer opportunities for seedlings to establish after wildfires and may lead to ecosystem transitions in low-elevation ponderosa pine and Douglas-fir forests across the western United States.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multiple disturbance interactions and drought influence fire severity in rocky mountain subalpine forests
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the combined effects of past disturbances, current vegetation, and topography on spatial variability of the severity of a fire that burned approximately 4500 ha of subalpine forest during the extreme drought of 2002 in northwestern Colorado.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of climatic variability on facilitation of tree establishment in northern patagonia
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined influences of potential nurse shrubs on the establishment of the conifer Austrocedrus chilensis and assessed the significance of those influences to establishment during years of contrasting climate.
Book
Fire and Climatic Change in Temperate Ecosystems of the Western Americas
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of climate and land use on historical surface fires in Pine-Oak Forests, Sierra Madre Occidental, Mexico and Northern Patagonia, Argentina are investigated.
