In Mediterranean regions, fires are a key ecological factor, altering soil properties, biodiversity, and landscape dynamics. Post-fire recovery varies based on vegetation type, fire severity, climate conditions. However, the specific relationship between post-fire temperature regimes remains poorly investigated. This study investigates this in an area severely affected by megafire. Three plots (unburned, low-severity fire, high-severity fire) were monitored for species richness, cover height, temperature, with data from 2021 to 2024 analyzed. Vegetation surveys revealed that severity influenced richness height. Particularly, burned areas showed higher proliferation of pioneer herbaceous three years post-fire. Moreover, after same period, consistently temperatures than unburned ones, reflecting altered microclimatic could be because presence more is insufficient mitigate air temperatures. Our results show impact vegetation, highlighting critical role modeling temperature. long-term monitoring necessary assess real effect type
