Table 1 Sampled plots were distributed among treatments that were combinations of burn severity (high, moderate, and low burn severity, or unburned), seeding with native grasses (seeded or unseeded), and whether or not salvage logging had occurred. Plots were located following a stratified random design with respect to burn severity, seeding, and planned salvage logging. Salvage logging was not completed on all planned plots, and seeding was limited to high burn severity plots, which resulted in an unbalanced experimental design.
