Early successional changes in coniferous forest small mammal communities following a high‐severity summer wildfire

Ecosphere
Forest fires in the southern Rocky Mountains are changing due to climate warming and increased fuel loads. Landscape‐scale stand‐replacement fires create extensive treeless swaths without regenerative seed sources, leading to long‐term conversion of ...
