Dead fuels and understory vegetation six years after a large mixed-severity wildfire in southwest Oregon

Creator:

Nathanson, Amy

Abstract:

Though the mixed-evergreen forests of the Klamath Siskiyous have a long history of large, mixed-severity fires, most research in this region has concentrated on the impacts of high-severity fire. Knowledge of the ecological effects of low- and moderate-severity areas within mixed-severity fires is important because such areas may account for...

Plant community recovery after high severity wildfire and post-fire management in the Klamath Region

Creator:

Lopez Ortiz, Maria Jose

Disturbance and microclimate interact to play a central role influencing the composition and structure of plant communities. In this thesis, I examined plant community composition and structure twenty years after high severity wildfires with and without post-fire management (salvage logging, fuel treatment, tree planting, and shrub release) under contrasting microclimatic...
