Bamberg SA and Major J. 1968. Ecology of the Vegetation and Soils Associated with Calcareous Parent Materials in Three Alpine Regions of Montana. Ecological Monographs. 38(2):127-167
An ecological study of the interaction of soil parent material, in this case a calcareous substrate, with the vegetation component of some ecosystems in the alpine region of Montana. The variables studied were flora, vegetation, soil morphology and chemistry, soil temperature, and soil movement associated with frost action.
