Relating land-use history and climate to the dendroecology of a 326-year-old
Quercus prinus talus slope forest.
This approach was used to monitor the resistance or voltage between two clips attached to
Quercus prinus leaves 3 cm apart along the midvein.

In addition, other sources of information (GIS layers) were used to identify specific areas and incorporate them into the LTA classification, such as a bedrock map (USGS data layer), the STATSGO and SSURGO soil maps (NRCS Soil Survey data layers), and the map of distribution of chestnut oak (
Quercus prinus) in the HNF area, interpolated from 511 sample points collected in the field.
In our area, I have found the white oak (Quercus alba) to be the mildest, with the chestnut oak (
Quercus prinus) a close second.
Among the species studied, chestnut oak (
Quercus prinus) proved to be least inhibiting; whereas red maple (Acer rubrum) was the most inhibiting.
Plant growth and quality (phenolics, nitrogen) and avian predation intensity were altered through the addition of fertilizer to and the exclusion of birds from
Quercus prinus and Q.
