A study in the Croatan National Forest, North Carolina suggested that increased litter accumulation near trees can adversely affect seedling survival by increasing fire intensity.

Abstract:

The ways in which alcohol use was related to stress and religious activity was examined in students enrolled a Wingate University, a private, church-affiliated university in North Carolina. This study found that students responded to stress by drinking alcohol in large quantities, rather than relying on religion or spirituality.
