Variable persistence of an iconic arboreal mammal through the Black Summer wildfires
Wildfires are predicted to increase in frequency and severity with climate change but detailed understanding of their influence on forest wildlife is lacking for many species. Wildfires vary in their extent and severity among landscapes, limiting generalisations about impacts from a single wildfire. We investigated post-wildfire persistence in the threatened exudivorous yellow-bellied glider (Petaurus australis) in south-eastern Australia. The widespread occurrence of wildfires in the ‘Black Summer’ of 2019–20 enabled populations in three landscapes (90–160 km apart) to be studied. This species has a slow life history (one young per year and >1 year to mature) so post-fire recovery is predicted to be slow. We conducted repeat surveys over 3 years post-fire in each landscape at 25–29 sites that were occupied pre-wildfire. All survey sites were burnt in two landscapes but only 40 % were burnt in the third. We estimated declines in occupancy of 13 %, 40 % and 66 % in burnt forest. The factors driving the variation in decline appear to be a combination of fire severity and the abundance of very large (≥80 cm) hollow (i.e. cavity) -bearing trees that serve as den sites. The implications of this study are that the impacts of wildfires on populations of tree-hollow dependent species can be expected to vary in different landscapes as a consequence of fire severity, rainfall deficit and logging history. Our study suggests the importance of ensuring populations are conserved across a wide geographic gradient, and the value of very large hollow-bearing trees rather than simply the number of any hollow-bearing trees.
期刊介绍:
Forest Ecology and Management publishes scientific articles linking forest ecology with forest management, focusing on the application of biological, ecological and social knowledge to the management and conservation of plantations and natural forests. The scope of the journal includes all forest ecosystems of the world.
A peer-review process ensures the quality and international interest of the manuscripts accepted for publication. The journal encourages communication between scientists in disparate fields who share a common interest in ecology and forest management, bridging the gap between research workers and forest managers.
We encourage submission of papers that will have the strongest interest and value to the Journal''s international readership. Some key features of papers with strong interest include:
1. Clear connections between the ecology and management of forests;
2. Novel ideas or approaches to important challenges in forest ecology and management;
3. Studies that address a population of interest beyond the scale of single research sites, Three key points in the design of forest experiments, Forest Ecology and Management 255 (2008) 2022-2023);
4. Review Articles on timely, important topics. Authors are welcome to contact one of the editors to discuss the suitability of a potential review manuscript.
The Journal encourages proposals for special issues examining important areas of forest ecology and management. Potential guest editors should contact any of the Editors to begin discussions about topics, potential papers, and other details.
