Does Time Since Fire Explain Plant Biomass Allocation in the Florida, USA, Scrub Ecosystem?
Pages: 13-25
DOI: 10.4996/fireecology.0602013
Although belowground biomass patterns are important in understanding aboveground responses, few studies have quantified how belowground biomass changes in response to fire cycles. In this study, we determined if patterns of time-since-fire (TSF; range 3 yr to 25 yr) affect belowground and aboveground biomass in scrubby flatwoods, a type of Florida, USA, scrub ecosystem. We also examined if plant groups (oaks, palmettos and all other species) show variation in biomass partitioning between belowground to aboveground biomass.
