Fire and disease

From the Summary ... 'Prescribed surface fire in southern pine forests controls brown spot (Scirrhia acicola) of longleaf pine (Pinus palustris) and fusiform rust (Cronartium fusiforme) of southern pines. Rhizina root rot and many wood rots are favored by fire. Additional…

Further studies of the nature of bushfire smoke

In-flight measurements of the following parameters have been carried out in the smoke from prescribed fires: carbon dioxide, sulphur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, ozone, particulate matter, integrated light scattering coefficient and ultraviolet radiation intensity. One fire (in…
