It also led to dramatic revisions in our perspectives on disturbances, secondary succession, and forestry practices. The Mount St. Helens landscape turned out to be a far more complex place than the “moonscape” that it initially appeared to be. Granted, a large area was literally scoured and sterilized, and that vast expanse of newly formed rock, mud?ows, and avalanche debris up and down the mountain made the Mount St. Helens landscape unique. But I still remember my surprise when, as I stepped out of the helicopter on ?rst landing within the extensive “devastated zone,” I saw hundreds of plants pushing their way up through the mantel of tephra. Surviving organisms were stunning in their diversity, abundance, and the mechanisms by which they survived. They persisted as whole organisms living below ground, encased within late-persisting snowbanks, and buried in lake and stream sediments. They survived as rhizomes transported along with the massive landslide that accompanied t | 出版日期 | Book 2005 | 关键词 | Conservation biology; Fauna; Mount St; Helens; Vegetation; disturbance; ecological recovery; ecology; ecosy | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/0-387-28150-9 | isbn_softcover | 978-0-387-23850-0 | isbn_ebook | 978-0-387-28150-6 | copyright | Springer-Verlag New York 2005 |
