Forest structure and biomass in early successional harvest units of the Andrews Experimental Forest (ESSA), 1999 to present

DB Code: 
TV052
Abstract: 

The objectives of this effort were to characterize species presence, cover, and biomass for herbs, shrubs, and tree regeneration, and to quantify tree regeneration by species and size class. The proposed scheme includes the following elements:

  1. cover of shrubs and tree regeneration
  2. herb cover
  3. biomass of erect shrubs
  4. tree seedlings and saplings
  5. Compile a complete species list of vascular plants
