Climatic and structural comparison of yellow pine and mixed-conifer forests in northern Baja California (México) and the eastern Sierra Nevada (California, USA)
Northern Baja California (BC) conifer forests are climatically comparable to US sites.
•
US Jeffrey pine forests have been more affected by logging and fire suppression.
•
BC Jeffrey pine forests support larger trees, are less dense and support less biomass.
•
Overall, BC Jeffrey pine forests are valuable reference systems for US restoration.
•
Fire suppression in BC is increasing forest fuels and threatens forest sustainability.
