Aims and scope

Fire Ecology is the international scientific journal of the Association for Fire Ecology. It publishes peer-reviewed, impactful articles on all ecological and management aspects relating to wildland fire. While the topics considered for publication are broad, manuscripts submitted to Fire Ecology must have a direct link to wildland fire and should include discussion of the ecological, management, or policy implications. Wildfire and prescribed fire research are welcome. Only high-quality manuscripts with wide international appeal will be considered. We welcome submissions on topics that include a broad range of research on the ecological relationships of fire to its environment, including, but not limited to:

• Fire ecology (physical and biological fire effects, fire regimes, etc.)
• Fire management
• Fire science and modeling
• Wildland fuel
• Inter- or cross-disciplinary fire-related topics
• Wildland fire law and policy
• Wildfire planning and risk management
• Social aspects (geography, sociology, anthropology, etc.) of wildland fire
• Wildland fire technology transfer products
