The characteristics of fire in a given ecosystem, such as the frequency, predictability, intensity, and seasonality of fire.
The role fire plays in an ecosystem; a function of the frequency of fire occurrence, fire intensity and the amount of fuel consumed.
a combination of fire frequency, intensity or severity, predictability and size characteristics in a particular forest or woodland ecosystem
a function of the frequency of fire occurence, the fire intensity, and the amount of fuel consumed
a generalized way of describing the characteristics and effects of fire on the environment
a generalized way of integrating various fire characteristics
The fire pattern across the landscape, characterized by occurrence, interval, and relative intensity. Fire regimes result from a unique combination of climate and vegetation and exist on a continuum from short-interval, low-intensity fires to long-interval, high-intensity fires.
the pattern of fires at a location; includes the frequency, intensity and seasonality of the fires
The combination of fire frequency, predictability, intensity, seasonality, and size characteristics of fire in a particular ecosystem.
The intensity and frequency of fire.
The combination of fire frequency, predictability, intensity, seasonality, and extent characteristic of fire in an ecosystem.
The characteristic frequency extent, intensity, severity, and seasonality of fires in an ecosystem. ( FEMAT, IX-12)
