1.
Turner M, Whitby T, Romme W
Ecology . 2019 Jan; 100(3):e02626. PMID: 30648264
The extent of young postfire conifer forests is growing throughout western North America as the frequency and size of high-severity fires increase, making it important to understand ecosystem structure and...
2.
Harvey B, Donato D, Romme W, Turner M
Ecol Appl . 2017 Dec; 24(7):1608-25. PMID: 29210226
The degree to which recent bark beetle (Dendroctonus ponderosae) outbreaks may influence fire severity and postfire tree regeneration is of heightened interest to resource managers throughout western North America, but...

Nelson K, Turner M, Romme W, Tinker D
Ecol Appl . 2016 Nov; 26(8):2422-2436. PMID: 27875007
Escalating wildfire in subalpine forests with stand-replacing fire regimes is increasing the extent of early-seral forests throughout the western USA. Post-fire succession generates the fuel for future fires, but little...

Turner M, Whitby T, Tinker D, Romme W
Ecology . 2016 Jun; 97(5):1260-73. PMID: 27349102
Disturbance and succession have long been of interest in ecology, but how landscape patterns of ecosystem structure and function evolve following large disturbances is poorly understood. After nearly 25 years,...

Meunier J, Brown P, Romme W
Ecology . 2014 Mar; 95(1):197-209. PMID: 24649659
Extensive changes in montane forest structure have occurred throughout the U.S. Southwest following Euro-American settlement. These changes are a product of confounding effects of disturbance, climate variability, species competition, and...

Harvey B, Donato D, Romme W, Turner M
Ecology . 2014 Jan; 94(11):2475-86. PMID: 24400499
Understanding how disturbances interact to shape ecosystems is a key challenge in ecology. In forests of western North America, the degree to which recent bark beetle outbreaks and subsequent fires...

Donato D, Harvey B, Romme W, Simard M, Turner M
Ecol Appl . 2013 Mar; 23(1):3-20. PMID: 23495632
Consequences of bark beetle outbreaks for forest wildfire potential are receiving heightened attention, but little research has considered ecosystems with mixed-severity fire regimes. Such forests are widespread, variable in stand...

Smithwick E, Naithani K, Balser T, Romme W, Turner M
PLoS One . 2012 Dec; 7(11):e50597. PMID: 23226324
Stand-replacing fires influence soil nitrogen availability and microbial community composition, which may in turn mediate post-fire successional dynamics and nutrient cycling. However, fires create patchiness at both local and landscape...

Westerling A, Turner M, Smithwick E, Romme W, Ryan M
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2011 Jul; 108(32):13165-70. PMID: 21788495
Climate change is likely to alter wildfire regimes, but the magnitude and timing of potential climate-driven changes in regional fire regimes are not well understood. We considered how the occurrence,...

Kashian D, Romme W, Regan C
Ecol Appl . 2007 Aug; 17(5):1296-311. PMID: 17708209
Ecologists have debated over the past 65 years whether quaking aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx.) has or has not declined in abundance, vigor, or regeneration in western North America. Many studies...
