Landslide chronosequence: Tree, site and vegetation factors in the Andrews Experimental Forest, 1981

DB Code: 
GV002
Abstract: 

To examine vegetation development on landslides by sampling a chronosequence of landslides 6-28 years old; to determine species that successfully revegetate landslides, and determine whether species composition changes with landslide age.
