FIRE EFFECTS
SPECIES: Flourensia cernua | Tarbush 



IMMEDIATE FIRE EFFECT ON PLANT : 
Killing fires rarely occur in desert communities because of low fuel
loads [14].  However, when such fires do occur, the effect on ecosystem
may be extreme because of the harsh environment and low rate of
productivity [14].  Little is known about specific fire effects on
tarbush.


DISCUSSION AND QUALIFICATION OF FIRE EFFECT : 
NO-ENTRY


PLANT RESPONSE TO FIRE : 
NO-ENTRY


DISCUSSION AND QUALIFICATION OF PLANT RESPONSE : 
NO-ENTRY


FIRE MANAGEMENT CONSIDERATIONS : 
Although their study site did not include tarbush, Rogers and Steele
[25] recommended a conservative view toward fire management in deserts
in general because of slow recovery rates in such communities.
