Smith Other Researcher 2011-09-14 The Three Sisters Wilderness Area is a Biosphere Reserve that represents the northern half of the Sierra-Cascade Province. It encompasses nearly 100,000 ha of essentially undisturbed landscape straddling the crest of the central Cascade Range, Oregon. Coniferous forests dominate the Three Sisters, although the Wilderness also supports a diversity of non-forested habitats including montane and subalpine meadows. The Three Sisters was given wilderness status in 1957 and was selected as a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve in 1974, to represent a "control" area for the nearby H. J. Andrews Biosphere Reserve. Integral to the establishment of a Biosphere Reserve is the documentation of existing ecosystems with baseline data. However, basic ecological research in theThree Sisters has been relatively limited. We conducted two types of studies: (1) phytosociological studies to characterize current vegetation patterns and to interpret relationships between community composition and major environmental and edaphic gradients, and (2) retrospective analyses of the invasion of montane and subalpine meadows by trees with a focus on the effects of recent climatic variation, grazing history, and site environment. climate change vegetation dynamics primary production grazing ecosystems forest ecosystems forests meadows LTER controlled vocabulary Long-Term Ecological Research (LTER) Andrews Experimental Forest site thesaurus primary production LTER core research areas Related PublicationsHalpern, Charles B.; Smith, Bradley G.; Franklin, Jerry F. 1991.

specific goals of our research were: to describe the composition, structure, and distribution of forest and meadow communities in the Three Sisters Wilderness Area/Biosphere Reserve, and to develop a plant association classification for major forest and meadow types to interpret these vegetation patterns within the context of environmental variation to characterize in relatively coarse fashion, forest disturbance history (primarily fire) to document spatial and temporal patterns of tree invasion of montane and subalpine meadows; and to identify the biotic and abiotic controls on tree invasion to provide a system for monitoring future changes in vegetation composition and structure

(1984) for a complete description of methods. Sampling of forest sites was conducted during summer 1981 and meadow sites during summer 1982 using the reconnaissance method of Franklin et al. (1970, A reconnaissance method for forest site classification. Shinrin Richi XII (1): 1-14). The term "meadow" is applied broadly to a diversity of non-forested vegetation types, including mires, lithosolic ridgetop. Sampling of forest vegetation was restricted to the Separation Creek drainage, located centrally on the west side of the Cascade crest. Sampling of meadow vegetation was more widespread covering most regions of the wilderness. Potential study sites were identified from topographic maps and aerial photographs. We sampled a total of 162 forest plots and 152 meadow plots (including montane and subalpine meadows). At each location, a circular plot (500 m2) was subjectively placed in visually homogenous vegetation. Compositional characteristics were recorded through estimates of projected canopy cover of each vascular plant species. Structural characteristics (in forest vegetation) were assessed through size classes distributions of trees and by tree age and height measurements. Environmental features such as elevation, slope, aspect, landform and topographic character were recorded. A soil pit was dug, particle size distribution determined, and a description of horizons and rooting depth noted. Depth to water table (if present) was noted in meadow plots. In forest plots, the ages of one or more dominant trees per plot were determined from increment cores. Detailed descriptions of analyses and results can be found in Halpern et al. (1984, Composition, structure, and distribution of the ecosystems of the Three Sisters Biosphere Reserve/Wilderness Area. Final Report to the USDA). Reconstructing Spatial and Temporal Patterns of Tree Invasion of Montane and Subalpine Meadows Details of the 1983 sampling methods are contained in Halpern et al. (1984) and of the 1993 methods in Miller (1995, The dynamics of forest-meadow ecotones in the Three Sisters Wilderness, Oregon: Variation across environmental gradients. M.S. thesis, University of Washington, Seattle) and Miller & Halpern (1998, Effects of environment and grazing disturbance on tree establishment in meadows of the central Cascade Range, Oregon, USA. Journal of Vegetation Science 9: 265-282). In 1983, 21 permanently marked transects were established across forest-meadow boundaries at 17 locations. Transect locations were chosen to encompass a range of physical environments and vegetation types, and to represent a diversity of tree invasion patterns. End points and intermediate points were marked with steel reinforcing bar. Transects were two meters wide (but were expanded in 1993, see below), and ranged in length from 50-150 m. Each transect began well within the forest and extended into the adjacent meadow beyond the extent of tree invasion. On alternating sides of the transect, 1 x 1 m plots were established 1-2 m apart for sampling vascular plant species abundance (cover and frequency). Five size classes were delineated for each tree species and each size class was assessed separately for cover. All trees falling within the 2-m wide belt transect were tagged, measured for diameter (at DBH or at the base) and height, and cored as close to the ground as possible for age determination. Positions along the transect were also noted. Trees too small to core were aged using terminal bud scale scars (most species except for mountain hemlock which does not produce annual bud scale scars), or age was estimated using an age-height relationship developed from a small population of destructively sampled trees (mountain hemlock). Finally a series of soil pits was dug adjacent to each transect, subjectively located to represent the range of plant communities present. We recorded litter depth, soil particle size distribution, horizon characteristics, root distribution and any other unique characteristics (e.g., presence of charcoal, water table). At each soil pit we also recorded the dominant ground-layer species, elevation, slope, aspect, landform and topographic characteristics. Photo points were established at the end points and at various points adjacent to each transect. In 1993, 15 of the original transects were resampled at which time each transect was widened to increase the sample size of trees. One transect was lengthened and two non-permanent transects were also added. Transects now vary in length from 50-150 m and in width from 5-30 m (a single transect is 2 m wide). As in 1983, elevation, slope, aspect, and topography were recorded and a set of soil pits was dug to assess soil texture and for hydric sites, the presence and relative depth of the water table. Similarly, to quantify the ground layer vegetation, the cover of all vascular plant species was visually estimated in a series of 1 x 1 m plots spaced 1-2 m apart on alternating sides of each transect. Trees were sampled in contiguous plots along both sides of each transect. Species, height, diameter (basal or breast-height), and position along the transect were recorded for each individual. All trees were aged by nondestructive means to permit future measurement. Three methods were used depending on the diameter and species. First, for trees with basal diameters greater than 6 cm, increment cores were extracted. Cores were taken as low to the ground as possible and coring height was recorded. For samples that did not include the pith, the number of missing rings was derived from an estimate of the distance to pith divided by the average width of the inner 5-20 rings present in the core (see Miller 1995). To obtain a final estimate of tree age, an estimate of age-to-coring-height was added based on regression equations developed from destructive sampling of small trees off the transects (see Miller 1995). Second, terminal bud scale scars were used to age trees with basal diameters less than 6 cm. Because bud scale scars generally underestimate true age, species-specific regression equations were used to adjust these estimates (Miller 1995). Bud scale scars were counted only to the point where they were obscured by basal wounds, bark expansion, or ground-layer moss. As with cored trees, an estimate of age to the height of the last bud scar counted was added to the bud scar tally. Finally, for small individuals of mountain hemlock, ages were predicted from height or diameter. Regression equations were developed from destructive sampling of trees off the transects (Miller 1995). Detailed descriptions of analyses and results can be found in Miller & Halpern (1998).

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. Data were provided by the HJ Andrews Experimental Forest research program, funded by the National Science Foundation's Long-Term Ecological Research Program (DEB 2025755), US Forest Service Pacific Northwest Research Station, and Oregon State University. National Science Foundation: DEB2025755 National Science Foundation https://ror.org/021nxhr62 DEB2025755 https://www.nsf.gov/awardsearch/showAward?AWD_ID=2025755 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.
