The Effect of Ecophysiological Traits on Live Fuel Moisture Content

The Effect of Ecophysiological Traits on Live Fuel Moisture Content

Live fuel moisture content (<i>LFMC</i>) is an important metric for fire danger ratings. However, there is limited understanding of the physiological control of <i>LFMC</i> or how it varies among co-occurring species. This is a problem for biodiverse yet fire-prone regions su...
