Small mammals decline with increasing fire extent in northern Australia: evidence from long-term monitoring in Kakadu National Park (2015, unknown): “In the longer term, frequent fires reduce the abundance of woody understorey and midstorey plants (Burbidge and McKenzie 1989; Woinarski and Ash 2002), leading to decreased overall availability of food resources such as fleshy fruits (Friend and Taylor 1985; Kerle 1985) and shelter and denning sites”
Increasing world consumption of beef as a driver of regional and global change: A call for policy action based on evidence from Queensland (Australia), Colombia and Brazil (2009, background): “The majority of native fauna species are adversely affected by grazing, with only a few benefiting from grazing (Woinarski and Ash, 2002).”
The effects of grazing and fire on vegetation and the vertebrate assemblage in a tropical savanna woodland in north-eastern Australia (2007, methodology): “These results are broadly consistent with some previous studies in reptile-rich Australian savannas that have considered responses of reptile communities to fire and grazing effects alone (Woinarski & Ash 2002).”
Stemming the tide: progress towards resolving the causes of decline and implementing management responses for the disappearing mammal fauna of northern Australia (2015, methodology): “2014), with bats added and the database updated by Woinarski et al. (2014). These data sets have been used to analyse changes in conservation status of native mammals.”
Rapid recovery of mammal fauna in the central Kimberley, northern Australia, following the removal of introduced herbivores. (2011, background): “…surveys at fewer than 30 sites) in two studies in Queensland tropical savannas showed that mammals were more abundant at ungrazed sites (Kutt &Woinarski 2007), and there was a significant negative relationship with increased grazing for abundance of two native mammal species (Woinarski & Ash 2002).”
The short-term effects of an extensive and high-intensity fire on vertebrates in the tropical savannas of the central Kimberley, northern Australia (2008, unknown): “This nocturnal/diurnal difference has also been reported from the arid zone (Masters 1996), semiarid zone (James 2003) and higher-rainfall tropical woodlands (Woinarski and Ash 2002).”
Factors Affecting the Use of Reforested Sites by Reptiles in Cleared Rainforest Landscapes in Tropical and Subtropical Australia (2006, background): “Pasture sites could be expected to support some mixed-habitat reptiles, although both richness and abundance could be expected to be low in most sites, given their long history of intensive grazing (Woinarski & Ash 2002).”
