Other claims from this paper (9)
- Observation Late successional plants had significantly more cover in refugia in 2015.
- Observation Late successional plant cover in refugia was not significantly greater in 2016.
- Observation Understory diversity was greater in open areas than refugia.
- Association Trillium erectum was associated with refugia.
- Association Viburnum alnifolium was associated with refugia.
- Association Rubus idaeus was associated with open areas.
