ORIGINAL ARTICLES Effects of Soil Burn Severity on Post-Fire Tree Recruitment in
Fire, which is the dominant disturbance in the boreal forest, creates substantial heterogeneity in soil burn severity at patch and landscape scales. We present results from five field experiments in Yukon Territory, Canada, and Alaska, USA that document the effects of soil burn severity on the germi...
