Disturbance response across a productivity gradient: postfire vegetation in serpentine and nonserpentine forests

Disturbances such as wildfire play a major role in the diversity, structure and composition of plant communities, however, little is known about the differential impacts of fire across landscapes that vary in characteristics such as soil nutrients and site productivity. Theory predicts that producti...
