Wildfire facilitates upslope advance in a shade‐intolerant but not a shade‐tolerant conifer

Wildfires may facilitate climate tracking of forest species moving upslope or north in latitude. For subalpine tree species, for which higher elevation habitat is limited, accelerated replacement by lower elevation montane tree species following fire may hasten extinction risk. We used a dataset of...
