   	I may be able to shed light.  Roots of plants, trees and bushes can   
   smoulder underground with very little oxygen but when they reach fuel   
   and air can burn with fresh vigor.   
   	My family suffered from such an incident in the 1940s and it wiped   
   out the new chicken house on which our farm hoped to profit.   
      
   	Straw is bundled into long loose things and laid down on the   
   hillsides to catch the eroding soil and hopefully slow the rush of   
   water.  No it is not an ecosystem but a poor subsitute for what   
   cannot be recreated quickly.   
      
   	I see that we have sod farms where grass was previously   
   exclusively grown.  Now a new product has appeared which is   
   native plants and especially in this case wild flowers which are   
   to use to attract and feed pollinators.  A similar product might   
   be used in the future to recreate more quickly the fire-damaged   
   ecosystem or so it seems to me.
