- Title
THE LONG-TERM EFFECTS OF LAND-USE HISTORY ON NITROGEN CYCLING IN NORTHERN HARDWOOD FORESTS.
- Authors
Goodale, Christine L.; Aber, John D.
- Abstract
The article presets a study that examines the long-term effects of logging and fire on aboveground biomass, foliar N, soil C and N pools, net N mineralization and nitrification, and NO3 leaching in northern hardwood forests in the White Mountain National Forest, New Hampshire. It uses historical land-use maps to identify five areas each containing previously logged, burned, and relatively undisturbed (old-growth) forests. The results show that forest N cycling is affected by disturbances.
