En los ecosistemas mediterráneos, las prácticas de gestión forestal post incendio se utilizan para mejorar la estructura forestal y reducir el riesgo de incendio en el monte bajo dominado por especies rebrotadoras. En este trabajo estudiamos el efecto sobre la capacidad reproductiva de la especie rebrotadora Arbutus unedo L. de dos tratamientos for...
In Mediterranean ecosystems, post-fire forestry management practices are often used to improve forest structure and to reduce the risk of fire in coppices of resprouting species. Such practices enhance tree growth (i.e., height), probably because they release resources. On the one hand, resource release may stimulate reproduction. On the other hand...
• Context: In Mediterranean area different post-fire management strategies are used for coppices of resprouting species to promote a more regular forest structure, enhance plant growth, and reduce fire risk. However, the effects of these management treatments on forest-associated fauna are unknown, which in turn could be limiting their beneficial e...
Resumen El madroño (Arbutus unedo L.) se encuentra mayoritariamente como especie acompañante en bosques mediterráneos de pinos y quercinias, si bien se ha documentado un aumento de zonas de monte bajo dominados por esta especie en zonas quemadas en Cataluña. La información de cómo gestionar estos montes es escasa y no es evidente que los tratamient...
Here we report how fire recurrence increases the distribution of a scarce forest type in NE Spain that is
dominated by the resprouter tree species Arbutus unedo. We used a combination of GIS and field surveys
to determine the effect of fire and pre-fire vegetation on the appearance of A. unedo forests. In the field,
we also analyzed the factors tha...
In recent years, several Mediterranean forests subject to fire are becoming increasingly dominated by the
resprouter species Arbutus unedo L. (strawberry tree). However, there is little information available about
the management of these areas, and it is not clear if the approaches utilized for other, more abundant
Mediterranean resprouter species...
This chapter analyzes the post-fire regeneration of Mediterranean broadleaved forests, the factors that may constrain this process and the best alternatives to improve the structure and dynamics of these forests after fire. Most Mediterranean broadleaved species share in common their ability to resprout from a protected bud bank after disturbances...
Post-fire resprouting ability of the non-dominant tree and shrub species of the Mediterranean Basin has not yet been experimentally tested, although this group contributes to maintain the richness of Mediterranean plant communities. In this study, we have analyzed the post-fire recovery ability of 15 woody species that occur in relatively low abund...
