Bark Thickness Equations for Mixed-Conifer Forest Type in Klamath and Sierra Nevada Mountains of California

Figure 2

Bark thickness data and models (predicted values) for eight species within the mixed-conifer forests of California. Data were collected across a latitudinal gradient: north (Klamath National Forest), central (Tahoe National Forest and Stanislaus-Tuolumne Experimental Forest), and south (Sequoia National Forest). Dashed lines denote predictions from Fire and Fuels Extension for the Forest Vegetation Simulator (FFE-FVS) [11, 12] or Larsen & Hann [13] models for BT in Oregon. Note scale differences in - and -axes for each species.
