Chestnut Oak Study Published!
Callie Oldfield (Biology Cā14), Sarah Oldfield (Mathematics Cā18) and Jon Evans published a paper in the journal Forest Ecology and Management on the population dynamics of chestnut oak (Quercus montana). This long-term study is the first to examine the long-term effects of sprouting in a population of oaks across all life history stages. The paper presents data from a one hectare forest plot on the Domain that Evans and his students have studied continuously since 1995.
