Sedgwick Reserve

30 Jun, 05 PM - 29 Jun, 05 PM

Presently populations of both Quercus agrifolia (coastal live oak) and Q. lobata (valley oak) are structured with older adults (>100years) and seedlings, but young adults are rare. Under this structure, there may be no replacement of adult oaks when they die.Factors that may limit oak regeneration include grazing and competition with annual grasses; these factors could act independently or together. Summers in the Santa Ynez Valley are dry and hot, the oak seedlings have to face several sources of stress: drought, heat stress, high radiation stress. The aim of this project is to determine the importance of summer drought (i.e., water stress) and other factors on seedling establishment.
