et al , 1996b) The LANDIS model was used to eval-uate fire, windthrow, and harvest disturbance regimes on landscape pattern and structure (Mladenoff et al , 1996; He and Mladenoff, 1999; Mladenoff and He, 1999) Fire is indirectly simulated at the stand-level by quantifying fire effects based on age class structure,

1996) Thus, tropical storm regimes may maintain rain forests in a secondary stage of succession, with the associated high tree densities and short canopies typical of any secondary forest (N Brokaw, pers comm ) The suggestion that hurricane- or cyclone-per- turbed forests have shorter canopies than other
