摘要: Background: The occurrence of fire is natural in many ecosystems but recently the number and frequency fires has increased. Aim: To provide an assessment resilience four habitats Serra de Monchique to assess implications changes community composition for conservation. Methods: Plots were established heathland, rhododendron scrub, rocky outcrops woodland vegetation recorded pre-fire two years post-fire. A one-off survey a range heathland plots with different history was also conducted. Results: rarer (rhododendron outcrops) less resilient than more abundant habitat. Fire caused increase cover therophyte hemicryptophyte species, typical dominant species failed reach their cover. In heathlands Erica australis (an indicator ‘dry heathland’ habitat European interest) increased C...
