The Flows Were Triggered by A Brief, Intense rainstorm (approximately 25 Mm H- 1 Over 15 Minutes) in A Small Area With Steep Slopes Covered by A Thick Colluvium of Quartzite Clasts. This Storm Resulted in the Development of several Unconfined Hillslope Debris Flows and the Formation of An Alluvial Fan at the Mouth of the Pitare Stream, Which Partially Blocked the Najerilla River. We Analysed the Conditions that led to the Development of the Debris Flows, and Estimated the Rainfall Threshold for the Debris Flows to Occur as Well as the Total of Mobilised Sediment. Four Factors Contributed to the Debris flows: (i) the Occurrence of A Rainstorm Three Weeks After A Wildfire, Which Had Removed the Plant Cover From the Soil; (ii) the Steep Slopes in the Area (> 30x), Which Were the Most Affected by Debris Flows; (iii) the Presence of Quartzite Scarps on the Hillslopes, Which Favoured the Development of A "firehose Effect" Involving Channelised Surface Runoff; and (iv) the Low Plasticity Index Values of the Fine Material of The...

Current Titles in Wildland Fire, May 2012 Source: Diversity and Distributions 17: 911-933 Year: 2011 Keywords: Ecology Regeneration Australia Abstract: Invasive Species Respond Quicker to Disturbance Than Non-invasive Taxa. Traits Found to Be Significant in Our Study Require More In-depth Analysis Involving Data for A Broader Array of species Given How Little is Known of the Reproductive Biology of So Many Taxa in This Species-rich Genus. Sets of Reproductive Traits Characteristic of Invasive Species and A General Ability to reproduce Effectively in New Locations Are Widespread in Australian Acacias. Unless There is Substantial Evidence to the Contrary, Care Should Be Taken With All Introductions.

In the Current Study, the Literature on the Effects of Fire on Soil Organic C, Total N, Microbial Biomass C and N, Dissolved Organic C, and Total N, Respiration, and N mineralization in Mineral Soil Was Reviewed, and the Results of A Meta-analysis on Literature Data Were Reported. Overall, Fire Significantly Increased the Soil Total N, microbial Biomass N, Dissolved Organic C, and Total N, but Decreased Soil Organic C, Microbial Biomass C, Respiration and N Mineralization. Among the Significant effects of Different Fire Types, Wildfire Had the Higher Effects on the Soil Organic C, Total N, Microbial Biomass C and N, Dissolved Total N and Respiration of Soil Than prescribed Fire. In Addition, Responses of Soil Organic C, Total N and N Mineralization to Wildfire Depended on Forest Type and Natural Zone. Positive responses of Soil Organic C, Total N Were Found in Broadleaved Forests and Mediterranean Zones, and Negative Responses in Coniferous Forests and Temperate zones. Wildfire Significantly Decreased N Mineralization in Coniferous Forests. The Effects of Fire on Soil Microbial Biomass C and N, Dissolved Organic C and N mineralization Generally Decreased With Time After the Fire. In General, the Effects of Fire on Soil Organic C, Microbial Biomass C, and Dissolved Total N and N mineralization Decreased With Increasing Soil Depth. These Results Suggest that Fire Increases C and N Availability and Increases Microbial Activity, Which consequently Decreases the Potential Rates of C Sequestration.
