Land management explains major trends in forest structure and composition over the last millennium in California's Klamath Mountains

Clarke A. Knight et al.

Summary: Forest ecosystems in California have been shaped by both natural and indigenous fire, with climate variation and indigenous burning playing important roles. A study in the Klamath Mountains showed that tribal burning practices and lightning were associated with long-term stability of forest biomass. However, indigenous depopulation and 20th-century fire suppression led to an increase in forest biomass, resulting in the current closed forest landscape. Large-scale interventions may be needed to restore historic forest biomass levels.

Identifying coarse- and fine-scale drivers of avian abundance following prescribed fires

Dana J. Morin et al.

Summary: Suppression of historic fire regimes has negative impacts on forest ecosystems in North America, and prescribed fires are used to increase wildlife habitat. However, monitoring of responses to prescribed fires may not fully capture ecological differences, leading to variable responses of bird species and indicating the complexity of habitat influences on wildlife communities. Fine-scale vegetation characteristics do not fully capture the ecological processes stimulated by fire, highlighting the need for a more comprehensive understanding of species responses and the interactions between prescribed fire characteristics and wildlife communities.

The effects of four decades of climate change on the breeding ecology of an avian sentinel species across a 1,500-km latitudinal gradient are stronger at high latitudes

Marta Lomas Vega et al.

Summary: The study shows that global warming has a significant impact on breeding time and breeding success of European pied flycatchers in Sweden. Northern breeders have earlier breeding times and higher breeding success rates, while those at southern and intermediate latitudes are less affected by temperature and vegetation greenness.
