| doc-title | Bark thickness determines fire resistance of selected tree species from fire-prone tropical savanna in north Australia |
| quote | We investigated the fire resistance conferred by bark of seven common tree species in north Australian tropical savannas. ... Although species did not differ significantly in their bark thermal conductance (k), the thinner barked eucalypts nevertheless achieved similar or only slightly lower levels of fire resistance than much thicker barked non-eucalypts. |
