Abstract

The focus of our research is to understand the rates and patterns of vegetation succession following fires in Grand Teton National Park. Our approach combines an intensive long-term study of biotic change on individual sites in Waterfalls Canyon, with an extensive investigation of the spatial variability of succession following fire throughout Grand Teton National Park.
