The effect of long-term repeated burning and fire exclusion on above- and below-ground Blackbutt (Eucalyptus pilularis) forest vegetation assemblages
We used a long‐term fire experiment in south‐east Queensland, Australia, to determine the effects of frequent prescribed burning and fire exclusion on understorey vegetation (

Our study provided a point in time assessment of the standing vegetation and soil‐stored vegetation at two experimental sites with treatments of biennial burning, quadrennial burning since 1971–1972 and no burning since 1969. Vegetation composition, density and richness of certain plant groups in the standing and soil‐stored vegetation were influenced by fire treatments. The density of resprouting plants <3 m in height was higher in the biennially burnt treatment than in the unburnt treatment, but resprouters 3–7.5 m in height were absent from the biennial burning treatment. Obligate seeder richness and density in the standing vegetation was not significantly influenced by the fire treatments, but richness of this plant group in the seed bank was higher in the quadrennial treatment at one site and in the long unburnt treatment at the other site. Long unburnt treatments had an understorey of rainforest species, while biennial burning at one site and quadrennial burning at the other site were associated with greater standing grass density relative to the unburnt treatment. This difference in vegetation composition due to fire regime potentially influences the flammability of the standing understorey vegetation. Significant interactions between fire regime and site, apparent in the standing and soil‐stored vegetation, demonstrate the high degree of natural variability in vegetation community responses to fire regimes.</description><identifier>ISSN: 1442-9985</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1442-9993</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1111/j.1442-9993.2011.02337.x</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>Melbourne, Australia: Blackwell Publishing Asia</publisher><subject>Biodiversity ; Burning ; Environmental impact ; Environmental management ; Eucalyptus pilularis ; fire frequency ; Fires ; Forest management ; Forests ; plant richness ; Prescribed burning ; Prescribed fire ; Queensland ; regeneration ; Regeneration (Vegetation) ; Seed banks ; Vegetation ; vegetation structure</subject><ispartof>Austral ecology, 2012-11, Vol.37 (7), p.767-778</ispartof><rights>2012 The Authors.
