Tree Mortality following Prescribed Fire and a Storm Surge Event in Slash Pine (Pinus elliottii var. densa) Forests in the Florida Keys, USA
Scissors Set In fire-dependent forests, managers are interested in predicting the consequences of prescribed burning on postfire tree mortality.We examined the effects of prescribed fire on tree mortality in Florida Keys pine forests, using a factorial design with understory type, season, and year of burn as factors.We also used logistic regression
