Abstract

    Founded in 1963, the Hubbard Brook Ecosystem Study is one of the longest running and most comprehensive ecosystem studies in the world. The collaborative, multidisciplinary research efforts include long-term studies of air, water, soils, plants, and animals. The study site is the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest, a 7,800-acre northern hardwood forest situated in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. The Hubbard Brook Ecosystem Study is a unique public-private partnership involving the USDA Forest Service, the National Science Foundation’s Long Term Ecological Research (LTER) program, the Hubbard Brook Research Foundation, and scientists from research institutions throughout the country.

    • Title: Continuous Revegetation Survey Data, Watershed 5, Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest, 1984 - 1989
    • Start Date: 1984-01-01
    • End Date: 1989-12-31
    • Description: Detailed measurements of recovering vegetation were conducted on a large set of permanent plots during the first five years after harvest of Watershed 5. Results are summarized in Hughes and Fahey (1991) and Pu et al. (1993). Measurements on these plots were discontinued in 1989 and replaced by measurements on a smaller set of larger plots. Those data are Not included in this dataset.

    • Purpose: Conducted to observe how vegetation recovers after a harvest.
