Biodiversity can benefit from fires tailored to suit particular ecosystems and species Fire profoundly influences people, climate, and ecosystems (1). The impacts of this interaction are likely to grow, with climate models forecasting widespread increases in fire frequency and intensity because of rising global temperatures (2). However, the relationship between fire and biodiversity is complex (3, 4). Many plants and animals require fire for their survival, yet even in fire-prone ecosystems, some species and communities are highly sensitive to fire. Recent studies (2, 3, 5, 6) are helping to define fire regimes that support the conservation of species with different requirements in a rapidly changing world.

用火促进生物多样性

生物多样性可以从适合特定生态系统和物种的火灾中受益 火灾对人类、气候和生态系统产生深远的影响 (1)。这种相互作用的影响可能会增加，气候模型预测，由于全球气温升高，火灾频率和强度将普遍增加 (2)。然而，火灾与生物多样性之间的关系是复杂的 (3, 4)。许多植物和动物需要火才能生存，但即使在易发生火灾的生态系统中，一些物种和群落也对火高度敏感。最近的研究 (2, 3, 5, 6) 正在帮助定义火灾制度，以支持在快速变化的世界中保护具有不同需求的物种。
