Although fires favor herbaceous plants at the expense of woody plants, woody plant dominance on many sites precludes the deliberate application of fire without first using chemical or mechanical treatments. Climate change is perhaps the most critical factor facing the current generation of land managers who are concerned about the

Vegetation Ecology is a comprehensive account of plant communities and their environments.
