Most people think of fire as destructive and harmful. But scientists have learned fire can actually be good for the ecology of a forest. Scientists who study ecopyrology - the effects of fires in different environments - have found that fires like surface fires are important to the survival of many plants and animals. 2, record 1, English, - fire%20ecology

L'écologie du feu [...] De nombreux écosystèmes doivent leur évolution au feu et dépendent de lui pour se renouveler. Un site récemment brûlé peut sembler mort, mais bien des formes vivantes y subsistent pour donner naissance à une nouvelle forêt. Le feu provoque les conditions idéales à la croissance et stimule ainsi la régénération. 3, record 1, French, - %C3%A9cologie%20relative%20aux%20feux%20de%20for%C3%AAt
