Simulating climate change impacts on fire frequency and vegetation dynamics in a Mediterranean‐type ecosystem
TL;DR: In this paper, the impacts of climate change on Mediterranean-type ecosystems may result from complex interactions between direct effects on water stress and subsequent modifications in flammability and fire regime leading to changes in standing biomass and plant species composition.
BookDOI
Landscape disturbance and biodiversity in Mediterranean-type ecosystems
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of land use disturbance in Mediterranean-type ecosystems are discussed, including land use changes and conflicts in the Western Cape Region of South Africa, South Africa and Chile.

Postfire Plant Community Dynamics in the Mediterranean Basin
TL;DR: The aridity of the climate has undeniably influenced, but not always preponderantly, the structure and composition of vegetations in the Mediterranean basin this article, and fire contributed to the creation of such communities as matorrales and tomillares in Spain, maquis and garrigues in southern France, macchia in Italy and xerovuni and phryganas in Greece.

Post-fire regeneration patterns in the eastern Iberian Peninsula
TL;DR: Results suggest that the highest post-fire cover and species richness is reached in thermo-Mediterranean conditions on limestone, and the main species are the resprouters Quercus coccifera and Brachypodium retusum.
