Abstract
A 12 year study of liana communities in a hurricane-damaged national park in South Carolina revealed that lianas suffered higher mortality than other woody plants. Growth rates of liana populations were affected by species, size colonization pattern and the amount of damage host trees received.Suggested Citation
