@CaseyKulla @eddie_petryshen Actually, quite of bit of research on this finds often the opposite of conventional forestry dogma -- e.g. leaving large CWD (and regenerating shrubs) after fire increases subsequent conifer regeneration and survival. https://t

@JaredDahlAldern @LegacySierra One example: "Post-fire increase in shrubs after high-severity fire...did not lead to high-severity fire in [Yosemite NP]..."Tree mortality rates were actually lower within shrub patches than in the surrounding forest." https
