Resumen
ALANIS-RODRIGUEZ, E. et al. Evaluation of arboreal stratum in a recovered area post-fire in the Chipinque ecological park, Mexico. Rev. Chapingo ser. cienc. for. ambient [online]. 2008, vol.14, n.2, pp.113-118. ISSN 2007-4018.
Restoration ecology practices undertaken after forest fires in a Pine-Oak forest at Parque Ecologico Chipinque, have been poorly monitored, and its efficiency is unknown. In 2007 the arboreal stratum of restored and not restored areas that were burnt in wildfires of 1998 was compared with a mature ecosystem of reference. The results showed significant differences in terms of diversity-abundance (t of Hutcheson (P ≤ 0.05) in the three sample plots. This implies that forest fires and restoration practices made in these areas modified diversity and abundance of shrub and tree species. A total of 11 shrub and tree species belonging to 7 families was registered. Quercus (Fagaceae), with four species (Quercus rysophylla, Q. canbyi, Q. laeta and Q. laceyi), was the most common genus, perhaps because it was favoured with superficial forest fires, due to its ability to resprout after fire.
