Many landscapes in Australia are fire-prone, and increasingly so. Altered fire regimes can have a serious negative impact on threatened plant species and ecological communities. A Threatened Species Recovery Hub project is working to better understand the effects of different fire regimes on threatened flora in order to improve fire management strategies and conservation outcomes. Hub researcher Mark Ooi of the University of New South Wales talks about how the season of burns appears important to Queensland’s Key’s Boronia.
