🔥 Prescribed burning in #Doñana

🌱 #Prescribedburning is a planned management tool that helps reduce the accumulation of vegetation fuel, lower the risk of high-intensity #wildfires and promote the regeneration of certain habitats.

#SHArgentina 🔥 We've learnt about the experimental work on #prescribedburning by #UnlFich in plots in the Paraná River wetlands.

👉Burns at various times to analyse the impact on vegetation, invertebrates, vertebrates, and soil.
👉Burns to improve pastures and manage the vegetation.

More to come! 😊

Two blocks of text on a soft blue and green background. The first reads "Myth" in large lettering followed by "Fire is inherently desctructive." The second block of text reads "Fact" in large lettering, followed by "Small, surface fires can actually be used strategically to reduce the risk of large-scale wildfires."

A soft blue and green background with text that reads, "Known as prescribed burning, igniting small fires in a controlled way harnesses the regenerative properties of fire and prevents the buildup of fuel. This strategy reduces the likelihood of severe, out of control wildfires developing – which can devastate ecosystems, displace people and communities, and hinder livelihoods." Following the text is a photo of a small fire in a forest, the smoke lit up by beams of sunlight.

Have you heard of prescribed burning? Read on to find out why it matters—and how #fire can be used as a defense against fire.
