Fire severity shapes landscape heterogeneity in Mediterranean forest ecosystems
In Mediterranean forests, the increasing frequency of high severity fires poses a challenge to current landscape management. In addition, these areas are experiencing a generalized process of landscape homogenization leading to a major risk of large fires. In this context, it is important to underst...

| Summary: | In Mediterranean forests, the increasing frequency of high severity fires poses a challenge to current landscape management. In addition, these areas are experiencing a generalized process of landscape homogenization leading to a major risk of large fires. In this context, it is important to understand how wildfires (e.g. fire severity) influence changes in landscape heterogeneity. |
