This journal focuses on the ecological impacts and management of fire across various ecosystems. It examines how fire influences vegetation structure, fuel dynamics, and biodiversity, including studies on prescribed fire effectiveness, post-fire recovery, and the role of fire in different forest types and shrublands. The journal also addresses the broader context of fire, such as its interaction with climate change, human activities, and conservation efforts in protected areas.
