Primeros resultados en el desarrollo de un marcador genético basado en las proteínas de reserva en dos especies del género Nothofagus
(Universidad Austral de Chile, 2010)
The Nothofagus genus (Nothofagaceae) in Chile includes 12 species and some hybrids among them. Some of these species are
seriously threatened, presenting a low distribution and high genetic erosion. In this study a molecular ...
Potential Effects of Climate Change on Fire Behavior, Economic Susceptibility and Suppression Costs in Mediterranean Ecosystems: Córdoba Province, Spain
(MDPI, 2019)
The potentially large ecological, economic, and societal impacts of climate change makes it a significant problem of the 21st century. These consequences have led to tremendous development in climate change scenarios and ...
Economic susceptibility of fire-prone landscapes in natural protected areas of the southern Andean Range
(Elsevier, 2018)
Large fires are the most important disturbances at landscape-level due to their ecological and socioeconomic impacts. This study aimed to develop an approach for the assessment of the socio-economic landscape susceptibility ...
Optimal harvest cycle on Nothofagus forests including carbon storage in Southern America: an application to Chilean subsidies in temperate forests
(Elsevier, 2018)
Different countries may have passed through their forest transitions from net native forest loss to net exotic plantation expansion. More investment in global and national forest monitoring is needed to provide better ...
A system to evaluate fire impacts from simulated fire behavior in Mediterranean areas of Central Chile
(Elsevier, 2017)
Wildfires constitute the greatest economic disruption to Mediterranean ecosystems, from a socio-economic and ecological perspective (Molina et al., 2014). This study proposes to classify fire intensity levels based on ...
The role of flagship species in the economic valuation of wildfire impacts: An application to two Mediterranean protected areas
(Elsevier, 2019)
Disturbance events play an important role in ecosystem services management and species biodiversity. In this sense, species biodiversity may constitute a large proportion of the total ecosystem value, mainly in natural ...
The ignition index based on flammability of vegetation improves planning in the wildland-urban interface: A case study in Southern Spain
(Elsevier, 2017)
Forest fires in the wildland urban interface (WUI) are a widespread and growing problem due to changes in land use and climate. The impacts of WUI fire depend on the exposure of homes to dense vegetation (both natural and ...
Landscape genetic structure of chestnut (Castanea sativa Mill.) in Spain
(Springer, 2011)
The current need for forest conservation and management has driven a rapid expansion of landscape genetics approach. This discipline combines tools from molecular genetics, landscape ecology and spatial statistics and is ...
Modeling Mediterranean forest fuels by integrating field data and mapping tools
(Springer, 2011)
Fire behavior modeling systems are important in predicting wildfire risk, fire growth, and fire effects. However, simulation software requires a new fuel modeling to include fuel treatments, prescribed fire and the transition ...
Wildfires impact on the economic susceptibility of recreation activities: Application in a Mediterranean protected area
(Elsevier, 2019)
Development of many rural forestry areas depends strongly on tourism activities; therefore, it is critical to incorporate these activities in the decision-making process for the management and conservation efforts. Different ...
