From the Conclusions ... 'If they have not been under unusual stresses from other sources, slash pines of pulpwood size and larger, normally are not killed by crown scorching during the dormant season, but a growth loss must be anticipated. Results reported here show that the growth loss can be a full year's growth in the two years after the burn.'
