The Forest's Long Term Ecological Research (LTER) program, established in 1988 and funded by the National Science Foundation, provides a framework for much of this activity.Forest Research at Harvard ForestBooseEmerybrowsingforest healthcontinuous forest inventory forest regenerationresearchRed Maple Seedling Soil Warming Experiment in Harvard Forest Lath House 20152015-01-012015-12-31Microhabitat environmental conditions are an important filter for seedling establishment, controlling the availability of optimal recruitment sites. Understanding how tree seedlings respond to warming soil temperature is critical for predicting population recruitment in the future hardwood forests of Northeastern North America, particularly as environmental conditions and thus optimal microhabitat availabilities change. We examined the effect of 5˚C soil warming during the first growing season on germination, survival, phenology, growth, and stem and root biomass allocation in Acer rubrum (red maple) seedlings.To understand the effect of experimental warming on the germination, survival, phenology, growth and biomass of red maple seedlings.VMC.1387.2863mySQLWheeler J, Stinson K. 2017.
