Resolving conflicts in fire management using decision theory: asset‐protection versus biodiversity conservation (2010, background): “Patches of forest with low-flammability characteristics may normally remain unburnt during unplanned fires (Clarke 2002) and these can provide important refuges for species that otherwise would not survive in the more regularly burnt surrounding landscape (Gandhi et al. 2001).”
REVIEW: Refuges for fauna in fire‐prone landscapes: their ecological function and importance (2013, background): “Natural deterministic refuges such as riparian zones and gallery forests (Palmer & Bennett 2006) or rock outcrops (Clarke 2002) have intrinsically different vegetation and harbour different assemblages than those in the broader, more flammable landscape.”
Landscape patterns of woody plant response to crown fire: disturbance and productivity influence sprouting ability (2005, background): “This is related to the effect of isolation from fires (low frequency of fires) in rocky habitats as high fire frequency has been shown to eliminate obligate seeding species in dry sclerophyll forests (Morrison et al. 1995; Keith 1996; Clarke & Knox 2002; Clarke 2002a,b).”
