Great work led by @knowlton.bsky.social & hopeful takeaways for forests of Greater Yellowstone! Rather than failing to regenerate after fire, forests may shift in composition and structure throughout the 21st century.

New paper out now in Ecosphere (esajournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...)! Forest landscape simulations in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem suggest that changes in postfire structure and composition, and not a conversion to non-forest, are the dominant response to future climate.
