@empiricism that’s for sure. I was thinking more about the long term #ecological consequences though. Like how is this massive #forestfire season affecting #nutrient cycles? #population dynamics and #wildlife behaviours? How will the chemicals in smoke alter the #phenology of #plants ? #Migration ? Landscape configurations and habitat #connectivity ? That kind of thing. ![]()
@TerriBlue416 @empiricism curious 🧐. I wonder what could be driving that trend? 🤦🏻♀️
@girls_can @empiricism There is literature describing succession of above and below ground organisms following wildfire. There is also some literature describing what will happen when recovery times between wildfire disturbances decrease and when fire severity increases, as we're seeing now. I've also noticed the wildfire literature has really grown in recent years for some reason...<sarcasm> #wildfire #succession #recovery
