Snag dynamics in the Yosemite Forest Dynamics Plot from 2011 to 2018. Note the different y-axis scales for snag abundance. Snag persistence and loss rates were calculated as annual changes in the snag population between summer field seasons. The vertical dotted line represents the Rim Fire in the fall of 2013. In the fire year, snag loss is split into snag consumption and snag fall. All snags 1 ≤ DBH < 10 cm died after 2010. Low decay: decay class 1; moderate decay: decay class 2; and advanced decay: decay class 3, 4, or 5
