Fire history, fire regimes, and development of forest structure in the central western Oregon Cascades

Creator:

Weisberg, Peter J.

Abstract:

Fire history and fire regimes were reconstructed for a 450 km² area in the central western Oregon Cascades, using tree-ring analysis of fire scars and tree origin years at 137 sampled clearcuts. I described temporal patterns of fire frequency, severity, and size, and interpreted topographic influences on fire frequency and...

Forest vegetation and fuel dynamics following stand-replacing wildfire, re-burn, and postfire management in the Siskiyou Mountains, Oregon

Creator:

Donato, Daniel C.

Abstract:

Following high-severity fire, forest succession may take alternate pathways depending on the pattern of the fire and any secondary disturbances during early stand development, with lasting consequences for ecosystem function. The objectives of this research were to quantify: (1) early postfire regeneration as influenced by the spatial pattern of a...
