Abstract
Forest fire ecology is a discipline to study the ecological consequences of forest fires and the interrelationships among them. With the intensification of climate change and the deterioration of forest fire status, forest fire ecology has become a very active branch of ecology. In this paper we reviewed the development history of forest fire ecology and expounded the extension and connotation of forest fire ecology, fire factors and regimes as well as their interaction with the ecological systems. Previous ecologists have conducted a lot of research on the impact of forest fire on the ecological environment and the adaptability of ecosystems to forest fire. The development of forest fire ecology can be divided into three periods: in the initial period the destruction of forest fire was recognized with the study objective being focused on forest fire control; in the expansion period, efforts were made to the application of forest fire in the fire management and the third period was symbolized as the founding of the entire discipline. With the application of the advanced technology and mathematical models, forest fire ecology provides successful examples in carrying out long-term prediction on the forest community dynamics after fire intrusion. Planned burning have been developed as effective means of forest fire management, whereas ecological fire mitigation is considered as a new concept in forest fire management.
