Climatic Trends, Disturbances and Short-Term Vegetation Dynamics in a Mediterranean Shrubland.

Paper doi abstract bibtex Fire and erosion are two major disturbances affecting Mediterranean ecosystems. Both of them are closely related to climate. There is evidence of decreasing precipitation in the Mediterranean, particularly during summer. There are also indications of an increased variability in the rainfall distribution. Climatic changes, though show high heterogeneity at a local scale. Based on these observations, we have evaluated the following hypotheses for the Region of Valencia (East Spain). [::1] During the past three decades, climatic conditions have become more favourable for wildfires and high erosivity rainfall events. We have used 30-year climate records from 97 meteorological stations to examine this. Results indicate that in general the hypothesis is true, although trends are spatially dependent. [::2] The effect of high intensity rain on burned land may substantially affect short-term ecosystem composition and function, and thus successional trajectories. Based on a plot scale study, we have assessed nutrient and vegetation dynamics after burning a pyrophytic community dominated by gorse (Ulex parviflorus). Erosion following high intensity rainfall affects physicochemical soil properties. As a consequence, plant cover is reduced and specific composition affected, changing the previous relationship between obligate seeder and resprouter species.
