Book Synopsis Classification, Description, and Dynamics of Plant Communities After Fire in the Taiga of Interior Alaska by : M. Joan Foote
Book excerpt: One hundred thirty forests stands ranging in age from 1 month postfire to 200 years were sampled and described by successional series (white spruce and black spruce) and by developmental stage (newly burned, moss-herb, tall shrub-sapling, dense tree, hardwood, and spruce). Patterns of change in the two successional series are described. In addition, 12 mature forest communities are described in quantitative and qualitative terms.
