Spatiotemporal analysis of controls on shrubland fire regimes: age dependency and fire hazard

2003-02-01

Abstract excerpt

Large fires in chaparral‐dominated shrublands of southern and central California are widely attributed to decades of fire suppression. Prehistoric shrubland landscapes are hypothesized to have exhibited fine‐grained age‐patch mosaics in which fire spread was limited by the age and spatial pattern of fuels. In contrast, I hypothesize that fires during extreme weather conditions have been capable of burning through...
