Changes in ecosystem properties after post-fire management strategies in wildfire-affected Mediterranean forests

Manuel E. Lucas-Borja et al.

Summary: Forests are highly vulnerable to global change drivers such as an increase in wildfire events. This study evaluated the effects of different post-fire management strategies on multiple forest ecosystem properties, showing that specific management treatments can efficiently support plant diversity and ecosystem functioning. The research revealed that ecosystem functions in Mediterranean forests decreased after wildfires but specific post-fire management strategies could help recover community-level properties and forest functions in the short term.
