Exploring the role of fire in each of the five Mediterranean-type
climate ecosystems, this book offers a unique view of the evolution
of fire-adapted traits and the role of fire in shaping Earth's
ecosystems. Analyzing these geographically separate but
ecologically convergent ecosystems provides key tools for
understanding fire regime diversity and its role in the assembly
and evolutionary convergence of ecosystems. Topics covered include
regional patterns, the ecological role of wildfires, the evolution
of species within those systems, and the ways in which societies
have adapted to living in fire-prone environments. Outlining
complex processes clearly and methodically, the discussion
challenges the belief that climate and soils alone can explain the
global distribution and assembly of plant communities. An ideal
research tool for graduates and researchers, this study provides
valuable insights into fire management and the requirements for
regionally tailored approaches to fire management across the globe.
