>> Can they sustain that if they get hit again and again? > Yes Let me fix that for you. The correct answer is not. A "severe" fire is any wildfire causing severe consequences. A small bonfire that would kill the last 20 specimens extant of a wild flower would be severe, for sure. Those small controlled fires will kill all the trees in the cohort 2-8 years old. Do it each five years and is "forest assassination". Dozens of species will quit the area because soil can not hold water anymore. There is not such thing as a free lunch.
