Figure 6.-- Effects of harvest treabwnt on monim and nitrate concentrations in the hums layer to2) of a Douglas-fir/western Zarck/subaZpine fir stand (Montuna). A clearer picture of the N mineral i tation changes which occur in soil following fire was given by Mroz and others (1980) in a laboratory experiment using forest floor material from the Coram site (Figure 7). This study showed an immediate release of N when the organic layers were burned, a rapid immobilization of the available N within three days following the burn, and a gradual mineral ization of the organic N to NHq in the succeeding five weeks. These N fluctuations are likely due to a rapid expan- sion of the soil microflora after the fire in response to increases in available
carbon and NHq (Ahlgren, 1974). Microbial activity may also be stimulated by a release of mineral cations from the burned organic matter and a decrease in soil acidity (Wells and others, 1979). Soil reaction increased over one pH unit in the organic horizon of the burned site at Coram (Figure 8) . A sampl i ng of the areas four years after burning showed that the pH of the 02 horizon had not yet returned to preburn levels. 0, HORIZON DAYS 0, HORIZON Figure 7.-- Anmoniwn concentrations in the forest floor tayers of Dougtas-fir/ western Zarch/subaZpine fir stand foZZowing burn;ng C&oz and others, 2980).
