• Abstract:
  • An evaluation of tree recovery from hurricane damage in a New England environment has not been possible due to a lack of strong hurricanes in New England in the past several decades. In order to measure this, we observed a test area within the Tom Swamp simulated hurricane event manufactured at this site in 1992.
