Toward a mechanism for eastern North American forest mesophication: differential litter drying across 17 species
Long‐term fire exclusion has altered ecological function in many forested ecosystems in
North America. The invasion of fire‐sensitive tree species into formerly pyrogenic upland …

Overstory tree mortality resulting from reintroducing fire to long-unburned longleaf pine forests: the importance of duff moisture
In forests historically maintained by frequent fire, reintroducing fire after decades of
exclusion often causes widespread overstory mortality. To better understand this …
