Effects of 20th‐century settlement fires on landscape structure and forest composition in eastern Quebec, Canada

2020-01-01

Abstract excerpt

QUESTIONS: Which role did historical anthropogenic disturbances play in modifying the natural fire regime? To what extent have they shaped current forest? Do those disturbances have lingering impacts in the present‐day landscape? Are certain tree species related to former land use? LOCATION: eastern Quebec, Canada. METHODS: Spatial data on landscape structure, burnt areas, settlements, and forest patches were vect...
