Table 2 Effect of fire recurrence (R) and severity (S), as well as their interaction (R×S), on the individual ecosystem functions and ecosystem multifunctionality (EMF). The significance of ordinary least square (OLS) model parameters is represented by ***(p-value < 0.001), **(p-value < 0.01), *(p-value < 0.05), and ns (p-value > 0.05)

From: The footprint of large wildfires on the multifunctionality of fire-prone pine ecosystems is driven by the interaction of fire regime attributes
