The amount and type of carbon (C) in a forest soil reflects the past balance between C accumulation and loss. In an old-growth forest soil, C is thought to be in dynamic equilibrium between accumulations and losses. Disturbance upsets this equilibrium by altering the microclimate, the amount and type of...
Armillaria (Fr. ex. Fr.) is a parasite whose pathogenicity
and role in forest ecosystems often depends upon the
physiological condition of the tree. Therefore, I tested the
frequency and severity of Armillaria ostoyae (Romagn.) Herink
infection among Abies grandis (Dougl.) Lindl., Larix
