NOAA/WDS Paleoclimatology - Simic fire data from Old Monarch Pass High, Western Slope - IMPD USOMH001
The historical role of fire in sagebrush (Artemisia tridentata) landscapes remains poorly understood, yet is important to inform management and conservation of obligate species such as the threatened Gunnison Sage-grouse (GUSG; Centrocercus minimus). We reconstructed fire histories from tree-ring fi

Avalanche intensity and the intermediate disturbance hypothesis
Can montane landscapes recover from human disturbance? Long-term evidence from disturbed subalpine communities
It is found that, after over 100 years, these disturbed plant communities remained distinct from similar surrounding undisturbed areas, suggesting that biotic factors structure vegetation communities even hundreds of years following disturbance.
