Tom Swamp Pulldown: Overstory Deadening Plot Transect Data, 1990-91
- HF-ID: HF1991-37
- Category: Research Files
- Creator: Lezberg, A.
- Associated Person: Carlton, G.
- Date: 1991
- Location: Tom Swamp Tract (Harvard Forest), TS I
- Media: Paper
- Contents:
- 4 accordion folders. 4 accordion folders. 8.5 inches x 11 inches.
- Keywords: permanent plots, tree maps
- Abstract:
- These plots were established and mapped in 1990 for an experiment designed to study the effects of selective overstory tree mortality. The planned manipulation was to kill and leave standing one species in each of four plots, to simulate mortality by a species-specific pathogen. This manipulation was never done, for logistical reasons and because the appearance of the hemlock woolly adelgid provided a more pressing "natural" experiment to study; however, the plots are maintained and have been used in other studies. There are four 50m x 50m plots, located in a mixed hardwood forest (red oak and maple species are major components), north of the experimental hurricane.
