A fire regime is the pattern, frequency, and intensity of the bushfires and wildfires that prevail in an area over long periods of time. It is an integral...

describes the fire regime concept. Global climate change drives many of the factors involved in the 'wildfire' and the 'fire regime' triangles. For...

adaptations to their local fire regime. Such adaptations include physical protection against heat, increased growth after a fire event, and flammable materials...
