Abstract: | Recent fire statistics and preliminary fire history data suggest that fire has been historically responsible for maintaining
the vegetative communities up to present in Daxinganling region. Forest types, and even tree species, arc dependent on the
degree of fire intensity, fire size, depth of burn and fire frequency. Selected samples of larch, pine, birch and spruce forest
were studied in terms of species composition as determined by fire frequency which mainly depends on topography and site conditions.
Intervals between fires range between 6 and 170 years. |
