Knowledge about the effects of fire on tree communities of Araucaria forests (AF) is scarce, although this physiognomy is among the most threatened ones in the entire Brazilian hotspot Atlantic Forest. With this study, we sought to answer the following questions: After three years of the fire, how has the soil of this forest remnant been recovering? Are fires in the AF able to change the structure, composition and species richness of tree community? The survey was carried out in a remnant of AF in an integral protected area in Brazil. Two areas were selected, one that has no fire history in the last 30 years (unburned) and another that burned recently. In each area 25 permanent plots of 20 × 10 m were allocated and all shrub-tree vegetation with DBH ≥ 4.8 cm was sampled. Our initial expectations were largely refuted, since we found no differences between the two areas in composition and richness of tree species and in most soil environmental variables, but only in the community structure. The majority of the dead individuals were concentrated in the smallest diameter classes (DBH < 9.8 cm). The only soil environmental variables that presented differences were pH and organic matter. Our study shows that the AF presents a significant resistance against forest fires, probably due to the evolutionary history of this physiognomy with fire. Nevertheless, several individuals died, so it is also important to highlight that preventive measures against fires are always relevant for conservation of this endangered physiognomy.

森林火灾后受威胁的亚热带植物地貌对土壤和树木群落的影响

关于火对南洋杉森林 (AF) 树木群落的影响的知识很少,尽管这种地貌是整个巴西热点大西洋森林中受威胁最严重的地貌之一。通过这项研究,我们试图回答以下问题:经过三年的火灾,这片森林遗迹的土壤如何恢复?AF 中的火灾是否能够改变树木群落的结构、组成和物种丰富度?该调查是在巴西一个综合保护区的 AF 遗迹中进行的。选择了两个区域,一个在过去 30 年中没有火灾历史(未燃烧),另一个最近发生过火灾。在每个区域分配 25 个 20 × 10 m 的永久性地块,并对所有 DBH ≥ 4.8 cm 的灌木植被进行采样。我们最初的期望在很大程度上遭到了驳斥,因为我们发现这两个地区在树种的组成和丰富度以及大多数土壤环境变量方面没有差异,而仅在群落结构方面存在差异。大多数死亡个体集中在最小的直径等级(DBH < 9.8 cm)。唯一表现出差异的土壤环境变量是 pH 值和有机质。我们的研究表明,AF 对森林火灾具有显着的抵抗力,这可能是由于这种带火地貌的进化历史。尽管如此,仍有几人死亡,因此同样重要的是要强调防火措施始终与保护这种濒临灭绝的地貌有关。大多数死亡个体集中在最小的直径等级(DBH < 9.8 cm)。唯一表现出差异的土壤环境变量是 pH 值和有机质。我们的研究表明,AF 对森林火灾具有显着的抵抗力,这可能是由于这种带火地貌的进化历史。尽管如此,仍有几人死亡,因此同样重要的是要强调防火措施始终与保护这种濒临灭绝的地貌有关。大多数死亡个体集中在最小的直径等级(DBH < 9.8 cm)。唯一表现出差异的土壤环境变量是 pH 值和有机质。我们的研究表明,AF 对森林火灾具有显着的抵抗力,这可能是由于这种带火地貌的进化历史。尽管如此,仍有几人死亡,因此同样重要的是要强调防火措施始终与保护这种濒临灭绝的地貌有关。可能是由于这种带火的相貌的进化历史。尽管如此,仍有几人死亡,因此同样重要的是要强调防火措施始终与保护这种濒临灭绝的地貌有关。可能是由于这种带火的相貌的进化历史。尽管如此,仍有几人死亡,因此同样重要的是要强调防火措施始终与保护这种濒临灭绝的地貌有关。
