Principles of fire ecology
[EN]: Fire ecology is a complex discipline that can only be understood by integrating biological, physical, and social sciences. The science of fire ecology explores wildland fire’s mechanisms and effects across all scales of time and space. However, the lack of defined, organizing concepts in fire ecology dilutes its collective impact on knowledge and management decision-making and makes the discipline vulnerable to misunderstanding and misappropriation. Fire ecology has matured as a discipline and deserves an enunciation of its unique emergent principles of organization. Most scientific disciplines have established theories, laws, and principles that have been tested, debated, and adopted by the discipline’s practitioners. Such principles reflect the consensus of current knowledge, guide methodology and interpretation, and expose knowledge gaps in a coherent and structured way. In this manuscript, we introduce five comprehensive principles to define the knowledge fire ecology has produced and provide a framework to support the continued development and impact of the fire ecology discipline.

[ES]: La ecología del fuego es una disciplina compleja que solo puede ser comprendida mediante la integración de las ciencias biológicas, físicas, y sociales. La ciencia de la ecología del fuego explora los mecanismos y efectos de los fuegos de vegetación a través de escalas espaciales y temporales. Sin embargo, la falta de conceptos definidos y organizativos en ecología del fuego diluye su impacto colectivo en el conocimiento y en el proceso de toma de decisiones de manejo, haciendo esta disciplina vulnerable a desentendimientos y uso indebido. La ecología del fuego ha madurado como disciplina y requiere de una articulación de sus principios de organización únicos y emergentes. La mayoría de las disciplinas científicas han establecido teorías, leyes y principios que han sido probados, debatidos y adoptados por los practicantes de esas disciplinas. Estos principios reflejan el consenso sobre el conocimiento actual, guían su metodología e interpretación, y exponen los vacíos del conocimiento de una manera coherente y estructurada. Es este trabajo, introducimos cinco principios comprehensivos que definen el conocimiento que la ecología del fuego ha producido, y provee de un marco conceptual para apoyar el desarrollo continuo e impactos de la ecología del fuego como disciplina.
