Effects of prescribed fire and thinning on tree recruitment patterns in central hardwood forests (2006, background): “Low- to moderate-intensity surface fires were common during this period; dendrochronological data from local hardwood stands indicate a median fire return interval of<5 years in local forests, until effective fire-suppression policies began in 1932 (Sutherland, 1997; McCarthy et al., 2001; Sutherlan”
Understory vegetation in old-growth and second-growth Tsuga canadensis forests in western Massachusetts (2009, background): “These communities also play a central role in the dynamics and functioning of forest ecosystems by influencing long-term successional patterns (Phillips and Murdy, 1985; Abrams and Downs, 1990; Oliver and Larson, 1996; McCarthy et al., 2001; Royo and Carson, 2005; Nyland et al., 2006) and contribu”
EFFECTS OF TIMBER HARVEST ON FOREST LEPIDOPTERA: COMMUNITY, GUILD, AND SPECIES RESPONSES (2002, background): “The network of deciduous forests in the eastern stretches of North America is one of the most diverse temperate forest systems on Earth (Latham and Ricklefs 1993, McCarthy et al. 2001).”
Oak establishment and canopy accession strategies in five old-growth stands in the central hardwood forest region (2003, background): “McCarthy et al. (2001) found a median fire interval of 2.0 years between 1624 and 1997 in Dysart Woods, Ohio, less than 10 km from Collins Woods.”
Changes in forest structure and species composition following invasion by a non-indigenous shrub, Amur honeysuckle (Lonicera maackii) (2008, background): “Several studies have reported that forest interiors frequently have fewer successful exotics (McCarthy et al. 2001, Robertson et al. 1994, Webb and Kaunzinger 1993), and new life forms, especially exotics, can be particularly successful at establishing and dominating ecosystems (Richardson 1998).”
