Only cells (sites) that showed a significant effect of contrast on firing rates were included in the study.
The contrasting effect of fire on the C4 and C3 bunchgrasses is consistent with the hypothesis that fire favors C4 over C3 grasses due to differences in post-fire soil conditions such as increased temperature, reduced moisture and reduced mineralizable nitrogen.
In contrast, toppling of fire-killed trees in forest environments with shorter fire rotations (150 years) comprise about 50% of the wood budget and indicates that field observers have a significantly higher chance of encountering low wood volumes in streams.
Although it is known that high temperatures and tillage both have a negative impact on GRSP, there is no study aimed at comparing and contrasting the effects of fire and enduring cultivation on GRSP content in contiguous areas undergoing the two forms of soil disturbance.
In temperate forests of Central Europe, by contrast, the ecological role of fire has largely been neglected even though the high frequency of wildfires in naturally fire-prone forests is well documented.
In contrast, the relative importance of fire weather on fire severity was always less than 20% across the entire range of spatial scales, while relative contributions of vegetation were relatively stable and always greater than 45%.
However, such participatory approaches are fraught with challenges because of contrasting views on the role of fire and the practices of prescribed burning between indigenous and state fire managers.
In total contrast was her portrayal in "Pillar of Fire" (1942), Tudor's dance drama about a repressed young woman; cast as the heroine's seemingly innocent Youngest Sister, she revealed a vein of maliciousness beneath her blithe exterior.
Within these two age classes, we surveyed sites of contrasting fire severity: (1) unburned, (2) subject to moderate severity fire (intact canopy) and (3) subject to high severity fire (burned canopy).
Pani puri is also a contrast of crunch and softness, with a touch of fire and a tamarind sourness.
