Post-fire research focuses on studying the ecological and environmental impacts of wildfires after they have occurred. This includes examining the effects of fire on soil fertility, water quality, plant and animal communities, and overall ecosystem resilience. Researchers may investigate the regrowth and recovery of vegetation, the potential for invasive species to colonize burned areas, and the long-term effects of fire on biodiversity and ecosystem function. The goal of post-fire research is to inform land management practices and help develop strategies for restoring and rehabilitating ecosystems following wildfires.
