Photo Series for Quantifying Post-Disturbance Fuels

Photo Series for Quantifying Post-Disturbance Fuels

FULL RESEARCH PUBLICATION HERE

A series of single photographs illustrate a range of stand conditions and fuel loadings in subalpine forests displaying stands in different stages of recovery from epidemic spruce beetle outbreaks and unaffected stands in Northern Colorado. Each photograph includes stand information summarizing understory and overstory vegetation composition, structure and loading, woody material loading and
density by size class, forest floor depth and loading, and specific site characteristics. This photo series is designed to help land managers assess fuel and vegetation conditions in spruce-fir stands of the Rocky Mountains during different stages of post spruce beetle outbreak recovery.
