Article
Forest fires are a recurrent natural phenomenon in the Mediterranean basin. Fires can affect physical, chemical and biological soil properties. The effects on soil properties are closely controlled by fire severity, which is a consequence of temperatures reached and the length of residence of heat in the soil. In this study, the response of Glomali...
Conference Paper
Full-text available
Forest fires must be considered a natural factor in Mediterranean ecosystems, but the changes in land use in the last six decades have altered its natural regime making them an ongoing environmental problem. Some big forest fires (> 500 has) also have a great socio-economical impact on human population. Our research team has experience of 20 years...

Glomalin Related Soil Protein (GRSP), a glycoprotein produced by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (Wright and Upadhyaya, 1996), was studied to determinate its effectiveness as an indicator of fire severity. Laboratory heating treatments were carried out at 180, 200, 250, 300, 400 and 500 • C in soil samples from eight different sites of E Spain with di...
Article
Full-text available
Fire induced soil water repellency (WR) is controlled by many different factors (temperature reached, amount and type of fuel, etc.). Soil properties may determine the occurrence and intensity of this property in burned soils. The objectives of this paper are to make advances in the study of soil properties as key factors controlling the behaviour...
Data
Full-text available
Soil water repellency (SWR) can influence many hydrological soil properties, including water infiltration, uneven moisture distribution or water retention. In the current study we investigated how variable SWR persistence in the field is related to the soil microbial community under different plant species (P. halepensis, Q. rotundifolia, C. al-bid...
Article
Full-text available
Soil water repellency (WR) is widespread in forest soils under different climatic conditions, soil types and vegetation covers (Doerr et al., 2000). It is normally characterized by a high spatial variability in persistence, showing wettable and water repellent patches. This phenomenon has a special interest in semiarid areas, such as the Mediterran...

En este trabajo se resumen los principales resultados de la investigación llevada a cabo sobre la repelencia al agua (RA) del suelo por ambos grupos de investigación durante algo más de una década. Comenzamos a estudiar esta propiedad en suelos afectados por incendios forestales, dado que era más evidente y mostraba importantes implicaciones en la...

Chapter
La desecación del humedal del PNTD es sin duda la consecuencia más relevante del continuado descenso de los niveles piezométricos, provocados por el excesivo bombeo del agua subterránea en el acuífero de la Mancha Occidental. Sin embargo, existen otros efectos inmediatos que, aunque ocultos a la observación directa, modifican gravemente el esquema...
Article
Full-text available
Soil water repellency (WR) is commonly observed in forest areas showing wettable and water repellent patches with high spatial variability. This has important hydrological implications; in semiarid areas where water supply is limited, even slight WR may play an important role in infiltration patterns and distribution of water into the soil (Mataix-...

Fire induced soil water repellency (WR) is controlled by many different factors (temperatures reached, amount and type of fuel, etc). Some soil properties may determine the occurrence and intensity of this property in burned soils. In this research, experimental laboratory burning have been carried out using soil samples from different sites and co...
Conference Paper
Full-text available
Soil water repellency (WR) is one of the properties most affected by combustion during a forest fire (Doerr, et al., 2000). The modifications of soil organic matter by the heating and the condensation of distilled organic compounds over mineral surfaces are the main factors responsible..After a fire, a layer of ash covers the soil surface affecting...
