Fig. 1 in Effects of fire on small mammal communities in frequent-fire forests in California
Fig. 1.—Locations of 10 burned and 10 unburned small mammal trapping sites (April to July, 2004 and 2005) in Yosemite National Park, California. Burned trapping areas were completely within the boundary of either wildfire or prescribed fire between 1990 and 2004.
Pre-Younger Dryas megafaunal extirpation at Rancho La Brea linked to fire-driven state shift
<p>The cause, or causes, of the Pleistocene megafaunal extinctions have been difficult to establish, in part because poor spatiotemporal resolution in the fossil record prevents alignment of species disappearances with archeological and environmental datasets. We obtained 172 new radiocarbon dates on megafauna from Rancho La Brea, USA, spanning 15.6 to 10 thousand calendar years before present (ka). Seven species of extinct megafauna disappeared by 13 ka, before the onset of the Younger Dryas. Comparison with high-resolution regional datasets reveals these disappearances coincided with an ecological state shift that followed aridification and vegetation changes during the Bølling-Allerød. Time series modeling implicates large-scale fires caused by humans as the primary cause of the extirpations; the catalyst of this state shift appears to have been mounting human impacts in a drying, warming, and increasingly fire-prone ecosystem.</p>

Fish on fire: Shifts in Amazonian fish communities after floodplain forest fires
<ol> <li>Severe droughts can lead to fires that cause massive tree mortality in even the wettest and most isolated Amazonian forests. After repeated fires, blackwater floodplain forests can remain in an open vegetation state of arrested succession that facilitates a transition towards a white-sand "savanna-like" vegetation. These vegetation shifts from closed-canopy floodplain forests to open fire scars, and eventually white-sand savannas, may have profound implications for fish communities that depend on floodplain forests for food and recruitment. In turn, changes in fish communities may contribute to the arrested forest recovery after fires as fish are important seed dispersal agents for many floodplain tree species.</li> <li>To explore the impacts of floodplain forest fires on fish communities, we sampled fish in unburnt forests, fire scars, and white-sand savannas in the middle Rio Negro basin (Brazil) during two consecutive flooding seasons. We compared the abundance, species richness, and the taxonomic and trophic composition of fish assemblages across the three habitat types. </li> <li>We found significant shifts in fish assemblages in fire scars compared to unburnt floodplain forests. Also, as fire scars increased in size, total fish biomass decreased strongly. Fish communities in unburnt floodplain forests seem to be characterized by a higher proportion of smaller and omnivorous fish species than fish communities in burned floodplain forests and white sand savannas. Fish assemblages in fire scars and white-sand savanna were not significantly different.</li> <li> <em>Synthesis and Applications</em>. Amazonian fish communities change after floodplain forest fires. Unburnt forests have diverse fish communities, with a large proportion of unique and small omnivorous species. In contrast, carnivores and detritivores become more common in fire scars and white-sand savannas formed after forest fires. Less omnivore fish after forest fires can reduce tree seed dispersal and forest regeneration, affecting ecosystem functioning and the services provided by Amazonian forests. Fish are also a primary source of food and income for people living in Amazonian floodplains. Preventing forest fires is therefore of fundamental importance for the conservation of Amazonian aquatic and terrestrial ecological communities as well as for the livelihood of people. </li> </ol>

Data from: Long term monitoring reveals the importance of large, long unburnt areas and smaller fires in moderating mammal declines in fire-prone savanna of northern Australia
<p>Biodiversity loss is often attributable to multiple interacting pressures that are moderated across environmental gradients. These processes contribute to complex responses that are challenging to interpret and understand. Well-designed and well-implemented monitoring can play a vital role in this but is rarely undertaken.</p> <p>Mounting evidence suggests that current fire regimes across savanna ecosystems have contributed to the decline of a range of biota. Hence, contemporary fire regimes are at odds with conservation goals.</p> <p>Using an extensive spatio-temporal monitoring dataset from three large National Parks in northern Australia, we applied generalised linear mixed models to examine: 1) trends in mammal richness and abundance through time and how these vary across environmental gradients such as productivity or landscape position (e.g., terrain ruggedness); and 2) how fire, a potential driver, is moderated by environmental gradients.</p> <p>Across 24-years, major declines in mammal richness and abundance were observed with greater reductions in less rugged and less mesic habitats. Patterns of decline were related to multiple aspects of fire regimes, but not changes in vegetation structure and composition, or the arrival of Cane Toads <em>Rhinella marina</em> and concomitant poisoning of predatory animals during consumption. More pronounced declines occurred in sites that were exposed to larger fires, had less long unburnt (5 years without fire) vegetation, and were more distant from large, long unburnt patches.</p> <p>Relationships between mammal persistence and fire varied among vegetation communities, with the strongest fire effects observed in lowland woodland – relatively drier with few barriers to fire spread – where the availability of long unburnt areas moderated declines more than in other vegetation communities.</p> <p><em>Synthesis and applications</em>. Current fire regimes are contributing to mammal declines in northern Australian savanna. Collectively, our results highlight: 1) the value of long term monitoring, and importance of considering landscape position when assessing faunal responses to landscape-level perturbations like fire; 2) that significant improvements in fire regimes are required to ameliorate mammal declines; and 3) the need to shift management focus from retaining small, short-lived unburnt patches towards preserving relatively large contiguous areas of long unburnt habitat, particularly in less rugged lowland and sandstone woodlands.</p>

Data for: Consistently heterogeneous structures observed at multiple spatial scales across fire-intact reference sites
<p>Geospatial polygons representing fire-suppressed control sites against which fire-intact reference sites were compared in Chamberlain et al. (2023). Control sites represent areas with 1) no record of fire history, 2) no record of late 20th century or early 21st century timber management, and 3) no "Fast Change" detected by the Landscape Change Monitoring System dataset. All sites are predominantly within the yellow pine and mixed-conifer zone of California's Sierra Nevada, USA. Polygon boundaries were defined using the NHDPlusV2 catchments, and were manually reshaped using aerial imagery to ensure that polygons were > 100 ha, represented primarily forested areas, and excluded major roads, infrastructure, and major rock outcrops.</p> <p>Detailed description of the methods used to produce this dataset provided in:<br> Chamberlain, C.P., Cova, G.R., Cansler, C.A., North, M.P., Meyer, M.D., Jeronimo, S.M.A., Kane, V.R., 2023.

Understanding and mitigating resistive losses in fired passivating contacts: role of the interfaces and optimization of the thermal budget
<p>We study p-type passivating contacts based on SiC<sub>x</sub> formed via a rapid thermal processing step, using conditions compatible with the firing used to sinter screen-printed metallization pastes in industry. Firstly, we separate the contributions of the two interfaces to the contact resistivity (wafer/contact and contact/metal), identifying tunnelling at the wafer interface as the main contribution. We then investigate the dependence of contact resistivity and sheet resistance of the SiC<sub>x</sub> layer on the concentration of active dopants and we propose strategies to reduce both resistances by increasing the thermal budget applied during firing. Lastly, we discuss potentials and limitations of implementing the investigated stacks as rear side contacts of p-type devices with localized metallization, and we show that an oxide layer that can withstand high thermal budgets is the key factor for obtaining high passivation quality and good electrical properties at the same time. The results obtained with an oxide based on N<sub>2</sub>O plasma oxidation show that this layer is a promising candidate for such an application.</p>
