Understanding the proximate causes of post-fire conifer mortality due to smoldering duff fires
is essential to the restoration and management of coniferous forests throughout North …

Global biodiversity hotspots (GBHs) are increasingly vulnerable to human stressors such as
anthropogenic climate change, which will alter the ecology of these habitats, even where …

Because old trees contain centuries of environmental history, investigators are increasingly
turning to dendrochronology to create context for current environmental change. While a …

Reestablishing appropriate tree species is an important step in converting off‐site
