“…The study of the thickness of the ash layer shows the degree of soil protection in the period immediately after the fire, and how it changes in space and time (Pereira et al, 2013c). Several studies have been conducted on the effects of ash on soil properties in burned areas which consider the thickness of the ash layer as a key to understand the impact on soil fertility on the evolution of ecosystems in the post-fire (Mallik et al, 1984;Leighton-Boyce et al, 2007;Cerdà and Doerr, 2008;Gabet and Sternberg, 2008;Onda et al, 2008;Balfour, 2008, 2010;Larsen et al, 2009;Zavala et al, 2009;Pereira et al, 2013bPereira et al, , 2013c. The spatial variability of the thickness of the ash layer may be affected by factors such as soil properties and ash texture.…”

“…High fire severity can reduce the thickness of the litter layer cover (Cerdà and Doerr, 2008;. Several studies have been conducted on the effects of ash on soil properties in burned areas (Cerdà and Doerr, 2008;Gabet and Sternberg, 2008;Larsen et al, 2009;Leighton-Boyce et al, 2007;Mallik et al, 1984;Onda et al, 2008;Balfour, 2008, 2010;Zavala et al, 2009) and some of these studies considered ash thickness as a key variable to understanding the post-fire ecosystem evolution (due to the control ash exert on soil fertility), and soil and water conservation. We consider that ash thickness is the key variable for soil protection from runoff and erosion for the reasons mentioned above.…”

“…Mallik et al (1984) observaram que a redução da capacidade de retenção de água pelo solo pode ser atribuída à diminuição na microporosidade, atributo esse que pode variar conforme as alterações na densidade do solo (Archer & Smith, 1972). Nas parcelas onde se aplicou o fogo, constatou-se, no período do estudo, tendência estatisticamente não-significativa de aumento da densidade do solo no ano de 1994.…”

“…A variação bienal do carbono orgânico ** As médias dos tratamentos com fogo e sem fogo, nas suas respectivas profundidades, diferem entre si a 1% de probabilidade, pelo teste t. Os dados referentes a argila dispersa em água são disponíveis apenas em relação ao ano de 1994; não foram feitas avaliações em todo o período estudado nesse ano. A argila dispersa em água, de ambas as parcelas, em 1994, é estatisticamente igual para as respectivas profundidades (Tabela 6), não podendo a argila dispersa, nesse caso, ser apontada como causa de entupimento de microporos, diferentemente do que observaram Mallik et al (1984).…”
