We review and compare well-studied examples of five large, infrequent disturbances (LIDs)—fire, hur-ricanes, tornadoes, volcanic eruptions, and floods—in terms of the physical processes involved, the damage patterns they create in forested land-scapes, and the potential impacts of those patterns on subsequent forest development. Our example
