Abstract
To establish rates of ecosystem processes in a near pollutant free environment and measure yearly patterns of variability of these processes. The methodologies used in this study range from standard to untested designs. All procedures are being tested and scrutinized. Our goal is to make suggestions about the kinds of processes and procedures to measure and use for accurate baseline data collection. Leaf, needle, and branch decay is measured to determine the annual decay. Canopy litter input is collected and measured at monthly intervals. Determine patterns and rate of this fine litter input. Determine components of input, i.e. proportion needles cones, bark, fine branches, etc. Subproject is a study of ecosystem processes potentially sensitive to airborne pollutants. This study provides baseline data and measurement of natural variability in ecosystem functioning and productivity in a pristine area.

Abstract
- The H.J. Andrews Experimental Forest is a living laboratory that provides unparalleled opportunities for the study of forest and stream ecosystems in the central Cascade Range of Oregon. Since 1980, as a part of the National Science Foundation Long Term Ecological Research (NSF-LTER) program, the Andrews Experimental Forest has become a leader in the analysis of forest and stream ecosystem dynamics.
- Long-term field experiments and measurement programs have focused on climate dynamics, streamflow, water quality, and vegetation succession. Currently researchers are working to develop concepts and tools needed to predict effects of natural disturbance, land use, and climate change on ecosystem structure, function, and species composition.
- The Andrews Experimental Forest is administered cooperatively by the USDA Forest Service Pacific Northwest Research Station, Oregon State University and the Willamette National Forest. Funding for the research program comes from the National Science Foundation (NSF), US Forest Service Pacific Northwest Research Station, Oregon State University, and other sources.

Study Area Description
-
Long-Term Ecological Research The Andrews Forest is situated in the western Cascade Range of Oregon, and covers the entire 15,800-acre (6400-ha) drainage basin of Lookout Creek. Elevation ranges from 1350 to 5340 feet (410 to 1630 m). Broadly representative of the rugged mountainous landscape of the Pacific Northwest, the Andrews Forest contains excellent examples of the region's conifer forests and associated wildlife and stream ecosystems. These forests are among the tallest and most productive in the world, with tree heights of often greater than 250 ft (75 m). Streams are steep, cold and clean, providing habitat for numerous aquatic organisms.

Methods
Method Steps
Field Methods - TL003
- Measure canopy litter input at monthly intervals, determine patterns and rate of this fine litter input. Determine components of input, i.e. proportion of needles, cones, bark, fine branches, etc. Subproject in a study of ecosystem processes potentially sensitive to air borne pollutants. Also baseline data and measurements of natural variability in ecosystem functioning and productivity in a pristine area.
- Leaf, needle, and branch decay: leaf and needle tissue collected in the fall, air dried and placed in mesh bags (Singh & Gupta 1977). The bags are placed in the field w/in 2 months of tissue collection date and left for a time period of 1/2 to 24 months. The bags are then collected, dried, and weighed to determine remaining amount of tissue. The different treatments include leached and unleached material, bags w/different mesh sizes to facilitate or exclude entry by detritavores, and bags place under the moss carpet. Usual placement is top of the forest moss carpet.
Sampling
Study Extent
- Relatively pollutant free atmosphere attractive to study the natural variability in the system. This site is part of an international network of remote areas where air quality is being monitored. At this site the bio- logical processes are also being described.
Sampling Description
- Five ecosystem parameters are being studied. Each will have a separate Abstract Form and distict card numbers. A reference stand has been characterized for this study site:
- Canopy litter fall
- Leaf, needle and branch decay
- Lichen productivity
- Moss productivity
- Conifer needle population stucture
- Leaf, needle, and branch decay: randomized block design, five blocks of bags were placed randomly throughout the 1 ha reference stand.
