Central to this is the exploration of the concept of the fire regime - the cumulative pattern of fires and their individual characteristics (fire type, frequency, intensity, season) and how variation in regime components affects landscapes and their constituent biota.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eContributions by 44 authors explore a wide range of topics including classical themes such as pre-history and evolution, fire behaviour, fire regimes in key biomes, plant and animal life cycles, remote sensing and modelling of fire regimes, and emerging issues such as climate change and fire regimes, carbon dynamics and opportunities for managing fire regimes for multiple benefits.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn the face of significant global change, the conservation of our native species and ecosystems requires an understanding of the processes at play when fires and landscapes interact. This book provides a comprehensive treatment of this complex science, in the context of one of the world's most flammable continents.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ross Bradstock\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0643104828\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780643104822\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e CSIRO Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/21\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 344\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.50h x 6.60w x 0.80d","brand":"Ross Bradstock","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48483397239039,"sku":"9780643104822","price":58.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_dd06bb44-0462-4cae-9f8f-86d1643cf1e1.jpg?v=1778038551","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/flammable-australia-ross-bradstock-9780643104822","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
