Study of the Development of Stream Habitats and Communities

Purpose

The purpose of the project is to look at the development of stream habitats and communities in relation to different vegetational states of watersheds of a similar class. Streams will be sampled seasonally and habitat mensuration will be carried out at a

Patch Dynamics Study

Purpose

The study will be looking at rates of vegetation closure through the years using aerial photographs. The sites will be used to gather some simple measures of opening size, current canopy size, and age of dominant perimeter trees.
