Plant traits linked to field-scale flammability metrics in prescribed burns in Eucalyptus forest.
Vegetation is a key determinant of wildfire behaviour at field scales as it functions as fuel. Past studies in the laboratory show that plant flammability, the ability of plants to ignite and maintain combustion, is a function of their traits. However, the way the traits of individual plants combine...
