- Towards an understanding of the evolutionary role of fire in animals (2018, background): “Many plants in fire-prone ecosystems persist after a fire thanks to morphological adaptive traits conferring survival (e.g., thick bark and resprouting structures; Keeley et al. 2012; Pausas 2015; Pausas et al. 2018).”
- Generalized fire response strategies in plants and animals (2018, background): “2018a), behind a thick bark (Pausas 2015a), or sunken in the trunk (Burrows 2002, Pausas and Keeley 2017).”
- Flammability as an ecological and evolutionary driver (2017, background): “Some pine species have the additional benefit of having a fast-flammable early stage (the ‘grass-stage’; Keeley & Zedler 1998; Pausas 2015a) that allow them to survive fires at the sapling stage, i.e. before growing taller than the flame height (Fig.”
