Question
The black kite, whistling kite, and brown falcon are known for using this phenomenon to catch prey. This phenomenon triggers the flowering of Telopea speciosissima, the waratah. Though not involving heavy machinery, this phenomenon causes a large decrease in soil porosity; it also increases the concentrations of the nutrients potassium, magnesium, and calcium and thus increases soil pH. Adapting to this phenomenon is the primary function of (*) epicormic buds and lignotubers. This phenomenon causes certain trees such as the lodgepole pine to release seeds, making them serotinous. This phenomenon is the most typical natural cause of secondary succession. Eucalyptus trees are resistant to this phenomenon while containing oils that promote it.
