Smoke and heat: influence on seedling emergence from the germinable soil seed bank of mesic grassland in South Africa

We examined if germination and seedling emergence of species from the soil seed bank of mesic grassland in South Africa differed in their response to smoke or heat treatments alone or combined. Soil seed bank samples taken from 0 to 5 cm depth of the topsoil were treated with…

The South Canyon fire revisited: lessons in fire behavior (including, A firefighting tragedy, and How were the west flank firefighters overrun?)

From the text ... 'In the summer of 1994, Colorado suffered its worst drought in decades. Severe fire weather was certain to come. On July 2, a major storm hit the State with dry lightning strikes, igniting thousands of wildland fires. Suddenly, the fire blew up. Witnesses at…

Seed germination cues and the importance of the soil seed bank across an environmental gradient in the Serengeti

Soil seed banks are an important source of new individuals for many plant populations and contribute to future genetic variability. In general, the size and persistence of soil seed banks is predicted to be greater where growth occurs in unpredictable pulses, where opportunities…

Impact of the 2009 Attica wild fires on the air quality in urban Athens

At the end of August 2009, wild fires ravaged the north-eastern fringes of Athens destroying invaluable forest wealth of the Greek capital. In this work, the impact of these fires on the air quality of Athens and surface radiation levels is examined. Satellite imagery, smoke…
