Fire Ecology and Post-Fire Restoration Approaches in Southern European Forest Types. Vallejo, Arianoutsou, M., & Moreira, F. In Moreira, F., Arianoutsou, M., Corona, P., & De las Heras, J., editors, Post-Fire Management and Restoration of Southern European Forests, volume 24, of Managing Forest Ecosystems, pages 93–119. Springer Netherlands, 2012.

In this chapter we start by making an overview of plant adaptations to fire and post-fire response types, which will determine the post-fire management alternatives that might be used in specific forest and shrubland types. Some implications of climate change on fire regimes and plant responses are addressed, and the more fire prone forest types in Southern Europe are identified. We finish by discussing the major post-fire questions and management alternatives faced by forest managers, common to all forest and shrubland types affected by wildfires. These include measures to protect soil and reduce erosion risk, how to manage the burned trees, the use of restoration or conversion, active or indirect restoration, the management of herbivory, alien species, and pests and diseases.
