AB  - The seasonal movements and home ranges of Korean field mice 
  <I>Apodemus peninsulae</I> in unburned and post-fire pine planted stands within 
  a pine forest were studied via the radio-tracking of 56 mice for 12 months in 
  South Korea. Seasonal movement distances were significantly longer in the post-fire 
  pine planted stand than in the unburned stand in each season and did not differ 
  between males and females over the 4 seasons. In both stands, the activity patterns 
  and duration of movement also differed significantly over the 4 seasons. Home 
  range sizes were largest in autumn and smallest in Winter. Seasonal home range 
  sizes were significantly larger in the post-fire pine planted stand than in 
  the unburned stand in each season. No differences in home range size between 
  males and females were noted in either of the experimental stands. Post-fire 
  silvicultural practices affect forest-floor small rodents in the early stages 
  after the planting of pine seedlings. Studying space use patterns over longer 
  time periods will provide a better sense of the long-term impacts of post-fire 
  silvicultural practices on small rodents within pine forests.
