Changes in stand structure and tree vigor with repeated prescribed fire in an Appalachian hardwood forest (2015, background): “This is similar to findings in the Ohio Fire and Fire Surrogate Study, which found increased dominance of red maple seedlings following fire on xeric and intermediate sites but not mesic sites (Albrecht and McCarthy, 2006).”
Underplanting to sustain future stocking of oak (Quercus) in temperate deciduous forests (2012, background): “Promising results are being reported for regenerating oak by combining shelterwood harvesting with prescribed burning to control competing vegetation (Brose et al. 1999a, b; Albrecht and McCarthy 2006; Iverson et al. 2008).”
Multiple interacting ecosystem drivers: toward an encompassing hypothesis of oak forest dynamics across eastern North America (2011, background): “This finding was supported by Albrecht and McCarthy (2006) who examined oak and maple dynamics in Ohio sites that had been thinned and burned.”
Roost tree selection by northern myotis (Myotis septentrionalis) maternity colonies following prescribed fire in a Central Appalachian Mountains hardwood forest (2009, background): “These methods potentially could result in a net increase in snag abundance that in turn could favor snag-dependent wildlife species, including bats (Brose et al., 2001; Hallett et al., 2001; Albrecht and McCarthy, 2006; Boyles and Aubrey, 2006).”
