Mean land cover diversity calculated using the Shannon-Weiner Diversity Index across all 3-acre subplots in unburned control, dormant season burn, and growing season burn treatment units in the Chattooga River Ranger District and Andrew Pickens Ranger District. Land cover diversity calculated from the total area of early (< 30% canopy cover), open (30–60% canopy cover), and closed (> 60% canopy cover). Error bars represent the standard error of the mean. Letters represent where significance (< 0.05) occurred
