Characteristics of contrasting shrub-steppe plant communities. Responses of plants and plant communities to disturbances. Radionuclides as indicators of biological fate and transport of materials. Summary. 7. Terrestrial animal habitats and population responses (L.E. Rogers et al). Mammals and reptiles. Birds. Insects and related arthropods. Animals as indicators of radionuclide and chemical contamination. 8. Theoretical perspective on ecosystem disturbance and recovery (P.A. Beedlow et al). Concepts of response and recovery.
