Forest Dynamics and Disturbance Regimes: Studies from Temperate Evergreen-Deciduous ForestsLee Frelich provides a major contribution to the study of temperate zone forest dynamics by considering three important themes: the combined influence of wind, fire, and herbivory on the successional trajectories and structural characteristics of forests; the interaction of deciduous and evergreen tree species to form mosiacs; and the significance of temporal and spatial scale with regard to the overall impact of disturbances. These themes are
