Influence of prescribed fire and forest structure on woodland salamander abundance in the central Appalachians, USA

2020-07-01

Abstract excerpt

Prescribed fire is used in the central Appalachians to promote and maintain mixed-oak and pine forests, create open forest conditions, improve habitat for wildlife, and to reduce the risk of impact of higher intensity wildfires on human development. Few studies have investigated responses of terrestrial salamander populations to habitat management using fire, and estimated responses have been neutral, negative, an...
