Rain‐shadow forest margins resilient to low‐severity fire and climate change but not high‐severity fire
Abstract At semi‐arid forest margins, increasing climatic stress combined with disturbances like wildfire threatens to cause widespread forest loss. However, forest resilience is likely to vary over gradients of topoclimate and vegetation characteristics, and the influences of local climate and tree...
