Abstract

Sandy outwash plains and terraces with patches of aspen scrub and open heath are common throughout the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Forest Region. Frequently the stumps of large pine, white or red (Pinus strobus L. and P. resinosa Ait.), may be found on these areas, testifying to the former presence of productive pine stands. Logging, often followed by wildfire, has eliminated or drastically reduced the pine in most cases.
