Abstract

Fire has been pivotal in shaping much of the Australian landscape, with many native species now dependent on its occurrence to persist. Despite this, fires that diverge from historical regimes are recognised as posing a significant threat to native species and the environment, although the specific mechanisms behind this are poorly understood. With increasing pressures from climate change amplifying the risk of more frequent and severe wildfires, understanding how different fire regimes influence ecosystem recovery is critical to guide future conservation and land management strategies.
This project aims to fill this knowledge gap by investigating the effects of wildfire and prescribed burns on native plant community structure and soil microbial richness, diversity, and putative functions in Marri (Corymbia calophylla) and Jarrah (Eucalyptus marginata) forests of south-west Western Australia (WA) to understand their recovery potential. Vegetation surveys were conducted using transects across four paired burnt and unburnt (control) sites in Meelup Regional Park to assess plant diversity, percentage cover and functional persistence strategies. Soil samples were collected for chemical analysis and high-throughput DNA sequencing to identify microbial communities and their putative ecological functions.
The outcomes from this study will raise awareness of the importance of microbial interactions and their contributions to the resilience and health of ecosystems. In particular, the study will highlight how different fire regime characteristics can influence biodiversity at multiple levels in diverse fire-dependent landscapes such as the Marri-Jarrah forests of south-west WA. By improving our understanding of how different ecosystem components respond to different fire regimes, these findings will support the development of targeted, adaptive fire management strategies to conserve biodiversity and build ecological resilience in a rapidly changing climate.
