DescriptionBennett Mountain oak woodland recovering from the Nuns fire.png
English: A hardwood tree burned completely leaving a hole where the stump had been, and a linear pile of ash in the foreground marking the location where the trunk fell when the burning stump could no longer support it. This photo was taken approximately six weeks after the fire started. There was no precipitation for the first four weeks of the fire, and then the site received approximately ten centimeters of rain in the two weeks immediately preceding the photo. Dried leaves from nearby trees have fallen during the weeks after the soil cooled. Soil under the coals of the burning tree trunk was sterilized by the heat, but grass rhizomes have survived and sprouted beneath the adjacent burnt duff.
