Abstract:: The role of disturbance in seed germination and first-year survival of red alder (Alnus rubra) was studied over two growing seasons at four sites representing a climatic gradient within the central Coast Range of Oregon. Disturbance affected red alder seed germination and seedling establishment by altering the temperature and moisture...
