Palm fuel dynamics in fire-sustained pine forests in the Florida Keys

Palm fuel dynamics in fire-sustained pine forests in the Florida Keys

In this study, the relationships between the time since last fire and the contributions of two palm species (Silverpalm, Coccothrinax argentata and Key Thatch Palm, Thrinax morrisii) to the burnable fuel load in the lower Florida Keys were examined. The population size distributions, effects of fire...
