Abstract

The factors that contribute to plant species establishment and decline following disturbance determine the rates and patterns of successional change of a system. In this long-term field experiment, we test the commonly held assumption that competition for space or resources by dominant species determines the outcome of succession. Specifically, we examine the population- and community-level consequences of removing one or more potentially dominant species from the post-disturbance community after clearcut logging and burning of a mature/old-growth Douglas-fir forest. Experimental treatments include: (1) removal of early-seral annual, Senecio sylvaticus, or perennial, Epilobium angustifolium—or both—to test the influences of these early-seral dominants on subsequent community development; (2) removal of all species except Senecio or Epilobium, to test whether the decline of these early-seral dominants is driven by competitive displacement; or (3) removal of shade-tolerant forest species that dominate subsequent stages of succession—Rubus ursinus or Berberis nervosa plus Gaultheria shallon—to test the influences of these long-lived perennials on understory development. The experiment is a randomized block design comprising eight removal treatments plus a control replicated in each of 25 blocks. Removal (reduction in competition) is achieved by removing seedlings or vegetative stems annually from a treatment area of 2.5 x 2.5 m. Sample plots (1 x 1 m) centered within these are used to estimate cover of all vascular plant species and, for the first 8 yr of the experiment, stem density and height, facilitating estimates of above-ground biomass. Pre-harvest data were collected in 1990, logging/burning occurred in 1991, and removal treatments and post-treatment sampling were initiated in 1992. Six of the nine experimental treatments were terminated between 1996 and 1998, with loss of early-seral Senecio and Epilobium from the system. The remaining three treatments (removal of Rubus, removal of Berberis plus Gaultheria, and the control) have been sampled annually since 1992. All regeneration of trees within the experimental area has occurred naturally. In September 2018, the study site was subjected to a controlled burn to limit spread of the Terwilliger Fire from the north. In 2019, plots were assessed for burn severity. Species' removals were terminated, but cover measurements continue in the plots.

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.

Method Steps

Field Methods - TP103
  • Vegetation measurements are made in a central 1 x 1 m plot within each treatment area (see Related Materials: Plot Layout). Pre-logging measurements were made in 1990; post-harvest measurements were initiated in 1992. Between 1992 and 1996, measurements were repeated two to three times during the summer (June-Aug). Since 1997, measurements have been made annually (typically in late-June/early July). Measurements include estimates of cover (%) of ground-surface conditions (bare ground, fine litter, and logs) and of each vascular plant species (including herbs, shrubs, and trees) (see Entity 1). In addition, between 1992 and 1999, stems of each species were counted and measured for basal diameter and/or height (see Entity 1). These parameters are used in species-specific allometric equations (see Entity 5) to predict the aboveground biomass of each stem (Halpern et al. 1996). For other species, equations predict biomass in the 1-m2 plot from cover. Plot-scale estimates of biomass (summing stem estimates as needed) were generated for all species between 1990 and 1999 (see Entity 6). After 1999, these estimates are limited to a subset of species whose biomass is computed from cover (or from cover and height for Berberis nervosa and Gaultheria shallon).
Models/Algorithms - TP103
  • Estimates of species’ biomass are from regression equations developed from dimensional measurements and destructive sampling at the study site (Halpern et al. 1996)
Permanent Plots - TP103
  • 1 x 1 m plots are permanently marked with rebar and uniquely numbered aluminum tags (block/plot number)
Quality Assurance - TP103
  • Standard QA/QC procedures, including range limits, legitimate codes, relational checks

  • Entered and checked by PI

Sampling

Study Extent
  • The 4-ha study site, Starrbright (named after nearby Starr Creek and the timber sale) lies on a gentle (less than 5%) east-facing slope at ~736 m elevation. Soils are mostly deep (greater than 1.5 m), loamy Andisols (frigid typic Hapludand) formed from weathering of andesite, breccia, and volcanic ash. Prior to harvest, the site supported a mix of mature and old-growth forest dominated by Pseudotsuga menziesii with a subcanopy of Tsuga heterophylla, Thuja plicata and Taxus brevifolia. The understory was dominated by woody species, including Rhododendron macrophyllum, Gaultheria shallon and Berberis nervosa.
  • Sampling frequency: annual
Sampling Description
  • The site was clearcut logged in late May/early June 1991. Slash was broadcast burned on 11 September 1991 with a moderate- to high-intensity fire. The full experiment consists of a randomized complete-block design with a control and eight treatments (A through I; see below) in which one or more species is removed from the post-disturbance community (see details in Halpern et al. 1997). Treatments were assigned randomly to nine 2.5 x 2.5 m experimental units (treatment areas) in each of 25 blocks (~11 m on a side). Within a block, treatment areas are arranged in a 3 x 3 array with ~1-m spacing (see Related Materials: Plot Layout). Species’ removal treatments were initiated in June 1992, synchronous with the first post-disturbance measurement of vegetation. For the first 7 years, removals were conducted monthly (April to June). Seedlings were pulled by hand and vegetative shoots were clipped at the ground surface (see Entity 2 for counts of seedlings and shoots removed). Subsequently, removals have been conducted at the time of vegetation measurement, but the stems removed are no longer counted. Sampling of six treatments was discontinued between 1996 and 1998 when removal or target species became uncommon. The remaining three treatments (A = control; H = Rubus ursinus removed; and I = Berberis nervosa and Gaultheria shallon removed) were maintained through 2018. Following a controlled burn of the site in September 2018 -- to limit spread of the larger Terwilliger Fire -- species' removals were terminated in treatments H and I. However, cover measurements have continued in treatments A, H, and I (see details in Halpern and Antos 2022).
  • Treatment codes (A-I), removal species, and response variables for the nine treatments include:
  • A. Control (no removal); Response = Community (all species)
  • B. Senecio sylvaticus removed; Response = Community (all other species)
  • C. Epilobium angustifolium removed; Response = Community (all other species)
  • D. Senecio sylvaticus and E. angustifolium removed; Response = Community (all other species)
  • E. Senecio sylvaticus and Community removed; Response = Epilobium angustifolium
  • F. Epilobium angustifolium and Community removed; Response = Senecio sylvaticus
  • G. Community removed; Response = Senecio sylvaticus and Epilobium angustifolium
  • H. Rubus ursinus removed; Response = Community (all other species)
  • I. Berberis nervosa/Gaultheria shallon removed; Response = Community (all other species)
