ALANIS-RODRIGUEZ, Eduardo et al. Post-fire ecological restoration of a mixed Pinus-Quercus forest in northeastern Mexico. Rev. Chapingo ser. cienc. for. ambient [online]. 2015, vol.21, n.2, pp.157-170. ISSN 2007-4018. https://doi.org/10.5154/r.rchscfa.2014.07.031.
This study was conducted in a burned Pinus-Quercus forest in Chipinque Ecological Park (NE Mexico), where several restoration measures were implemented after a wildfire. The main objectives of the study were to evaluate the establishment of planted Pinus pseudostrobus (Lindl.) seedlings, and analyze the effect of contour-felled logs on soil retention, ten years after treatment implementation. A 35 % plantation survival rate, which is considered unacceptable, was recorded. Contour-felled logs significantly improved soil retention, increasing soil depth by 25%. We conclude that post-fire restoration measures were successful and their use in the rehabilitation of burned Pinus-Quercus forests in Sierra Madre Oriental is recommended as they contribute to the establishment of a key species and reduce soil loss.
