dc.description.abstract | A one-year-old experimental burn plot was studied for differences in vegetation and percent organic matter in areas intensively burned by the fire and those which had scarcely been burned. Sixty square meters in each of the two areas were assessed for species composition, richness, and diversity. Results show that relatively unburned areas contain a higher percent organic matter and species richness compared with the areas that had been heavily burned. Frequencies of occurrence of the three dominant species--Pteridium aquilinum, Carex rugosperma, and Populus grandidentata--did not differ significantly, but Pteridium aquilinum was found to be signficantly denser on the areas of low fire. These results show that fire patchiness helps determine patterns of revegetation. | en_US |
