Climate warming and increased frequency and severity of wildfires have the potential to
undermine forest resilience to wildfires. Species demography implies that vegetation
responses to fires depend on a series of population filters, including adult survival, seed
availability, germination, establishment, and survival; the impacts of these varying filters will
ultimately determine post-fire forest trajectories. The objectives of this study were to (1)
assess how fires affect biologically-relevant microclimate conditions; and (2) evaluate the …
