Project Description

Project Title:  View help for Project Title Green River Fire and Fire Surrogates Study: Tree and duff measurements
Summary:  View help for Summary These are data from the Green River Fire and Fire Surrogates Study which took place in the Green River Game Lands in western North Carolina, USA. In this study, three treatments - mechanical felling (Mech), repeated prescribed fires (Fire), or a combination (Mech + Fire)- were experimentally applied starting in 2003 and compared to untreated controls (Control). Species composition of overstory trees, total basal area, saplings, seedlings, and duff depth are included from 2001, and from the latest available inventory (2014 [duff], 2016 [seedlings/saplings], or 2018 [overstory]). Changes (delta) from pre- to post-treatment are included as well.
