From: Tree regeneration following wildfires in the western US: a review
Study | Forest type | Disturbances | Influence of disturbances |
---|---|---|---|
Coop et al. 2016 | Ponderosa-mixed conifer | Fire-fire | Higher reburn severity promoted transition to non-forest cover types |
Donato et al. 2009 | Mixed conifer | Fire-fire | No reduction in regeneration |
Harvey et al. 2014a | Lodgepole | Bark beetle-fire | No reduction in regeneration |
Harvey et al. 2014b | Lodgepole | Bark beetle-fire | No reduction in regeneration |
Harvey et al. 2013 | Douglas-fir | Bark beetle-fire | Low tree regeneration in bark beetle and high severity fire areas |
Larson et al. 2013 | Dry mixed conifer | Fire-fire | Repeated fires killed regeneration from the first fire but restored a more historical species composition |
Lydersen and North 2012 | Ponderosa-mixed conifer | Fire-fire | Shrub cover increased and decreased regeneration |
Stevens-Rumann et al. 2015 | Dry mixed conifer | Bark beetle-fire | No reduction in regeneration due to both disturbances |
Stevens-Rumann and Morgan 2016 | Dry and moist mixed conifer | Fire-fire | Tree regeneration reductions in repeated high-severity fires |
