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.
Funding

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.

Study Description

To compare invertebrate densitiy, diversity, and functional groups representation between old-growth and young-growth forests. Field Methods - TS015

Methods

Method Steps

Field Methods - TS015
  • Old-growth trees were initially climbed with spikes and rigged with ropes for later canopy access. All samples collected by enclosing a branch in a 50-l plastic bag and returned to the lab. All samples were sorted under a stereoscope into invertebrate, foliage, lichen, and twig components. Plant material was dried at 45 degrees.

Sampling

Sampling Description
  • One Douglas-fir and one western hemlock tree was sampled at each old-growth site were sampled at top, middle, and bottom crown strata in June, August and September, 1986. Three Douglas-fir at each young-growth site and three Snowbrush (Ceanothus velutinus) on Watershed 6 (site 7) were sampled in June, August and October.
