2. Ahlgren, I. F., and C. E. Ahlgren. 1960. Ecological effects of forest fires.  
        Bot. Rev. 26:483-533.

Each combination of region, climate, forest tree association, soil type, and plant species must be considered individually to draw proper conclusions. North American, as well as other literature is reviewed in detail. This paper provided a state-of-knowledge review through 1960. [K-L-S]
