Sedgwick Reserve

24 Mar, 12 AM - 30 Jun, 09 AM

We will perform monthly collections of insects in Eric Seabloom's experimental annual and perennial grass plots from 3/2003 to 7/2003. We will use suction trapping (with collections from a 0.5m^2 area in each plot), pitfall traps (3 traps with soapy water for ground-dwelling insects), and visual surveys of ants and aphids. This study will quantify the insect population response to (a) different grass types (annual/perennial) and (b) plant nutrient status (nitrogen added or no nitrogen). The potential impacts of this research to natural systems, future research in the reserve, or ongoing research are negligible.
