The potential importance of unburned islands as refugia for the persistence of wildlife species in fire‐prone ecosystems
Abstract The persistence of wildlife species in fire‐prone ecosystems is under increasing pressure from global change, including alterations in fire regimes caused by climate change. However, unburned islands might act to mitigate negative effects of fire on wildlife populations by providing habitat...
