Book Description
Fire and Ecosystems focuses on a number of aspects of fire ecology. This book deals separately with both harmful and beneficial effects of fire on soils, soil organisms, animals, and plants. This reference material elucidates the effects of fire on grasslands and considers the role of fire in temperate forests and related ecosystems. Four chapters are presented on a regional basis to highlight variations in responses, especially plant succession, to fire. The use of fire in land management is also explored. This book will serve as an invaluable reference material to researchers, teachers, and land managers.

Book Description
Excerpt from Effects of Fire on Fauna: A State-of-Knowledge Review In preparing a state-of - knowledge review for fire and fauna, our basic reference source was the chapter Effects of Fire on Birds and Mammals, by J. F. Bendell (1974) in the book Fire and Ecosystems. In addition to summarizing this 52-page paper, we added material covering invertebrates and stream fauna and attempted to recognize additional references published since 1974. In total, the material presented here summarizes about 450 citations. One of the major problems in attempting any generalization about the effects of fire on fauna is the variation in fires: intensity, duration, frequency, location, shape, extent, season, fuels, sites, soils, and prescribed fires as compared to wildfire. Few studies are quantitative, have adequate controls, and have been carried on long enough to really assess effects on fauna. Another complicating factor is that much of the information about fire effects on fauna actually reports plant community modification by fire and the consequent influence on food, cover, and habitat used by various faunal species.
