Snag decomposition following stand‐replacing wildfires alters wildlife habitat use and surface woody fuels through time
Abstract High‐severity wildfires create pulses of snags that serve a variety of functions as they decompose over time. Snag‐related benefits (and hazards) are often linked to specific decomposition stages, but snag decomposition rates and pathways are not well understood in many forest types. We exa...
