Sagehen Creek Field Station

28 Mar, 03 AM - 29 Mar, 10 AM

In order to reastically draft methods for the above approved research project I hope to visit Sagehen Creek Field Station and do some preliminary site reconnassance. Reconnassance would occur for no more than 2 days during my spring break, the week for March 26-March 30, 2007. Field work is expected to occur Summer 2007 and Winter 2008. The objectives of the study planned are: 1. To evaluate marten occurrence throughout the Sagehen Creek Experimental Forest by using the established systematic grid system to compare current findings with historical records. 2. To relate the historical data on marten occurrence and distribution to changes in forest landscape condition in the study area. 3. To relate habitat variables collected at each plot to both marten occurrence and to the historical description of martens and vegetation conditions. 4. Provide baseline data for future projects, specifically for the proposed implementation of strategically placed area treatments (SPLAT) 5. As opportunities arise, evaluate the distribution of other forest sensitive species that are detected by proposed survey methods.
