Fire and biodiversity in the Anthropocene
BACKGROUND Fire has shaped the diversity of life on Earth for millions of years. Variation
in fire regimes continues to be a source of biodiversity across the globe, and many plants, …

Habitat or fuel? Implications of long‐term, post‐fire dynamics for the development of key resources for fauna and fire
Managing fire to achieve hazard reduction while providing for biodiversity conservation is
complex in fire‐prone regions. This challenge is exacerbated by limited understanding of post‐…

Using fire to promote biodiversity
Fire profoundly influences people, climate, and ecosystems (1). The impacts of this interaction
are likely to grow, with climate models forecasting widespread increases in fire frequency …

Effects of quadriceps femoris muscle strengthening on crouch gait in children with spastic diplegia
Background and Purpose. Despite evidence of weakness in children with cerebral palsy, the
use of strength training in this population remains controversial. Subjects. Fourteen children …

Intrinsic foot muscles have the capacity to control deformation of the longitudinal arch
The human foot is characterized by a pronounced longitudinal arch (LA) that compresses
and recoils in response to external load during locomotion, allowing for storage and return of …

The functional importance of human foot muscles for bipedal locomotion
Human feet have evolved to facilitate bipedal locomotion, losing an opposable digit that
grasped branches in favor of a longitudinal arch (LA) that stiffens the foot and aids bipedal gait. …
