Abstract
The Yunnan Province of China is wet and warm enough to support magnificent forests. However, many mountains in the region are covered by a shrubland formation dominated by an unusual pine, the shrubby and multi-stemmed Pinus yunnanensis (Yunnan pine; Fig. 1). This formation is natural, and not the product of forest degradation; and fire appears to be a major factor explaining the features of this pine. This region has a subtropical monsoon climate influenced by both the Indian Ocean Monsoon from the west, and the Pacific Ocean Monsoon from the east.
