FIRE ECOLOGY
SPECIES: Quercus ellipsoidalis | Northern Pin Oak 


FIRE ECOLOGY OR ADAPTATIONS : 
Northern pin oak is well adapted to fire.  The thermal insulating
properties of the bark of mature trees allow it to survive even annual
burning [24].  Smaller trees are easily damaged by surface fires but
will sprout vigorously from the root collar or stump after top-kill
[8,9].


POSTFIRE REGENERATION STRATEGY : 
   Tree with adventitious-bud root crown/root sucker
