Long-Term Ecological Research (LTER)/AND013: Stream-Upland Wood Decay Experiment in the H.J. Andrews Forest

Volume of heartwood, sapwood, inner bark, and outer bark on end of each log were noted. Density of these substrates also determined for each end of each log. The Andrews Forest is in the western Cascade Range of Oregon in the 15,800-acre drainage basin of the Lookout Creek, a tributary of Blue River and the McKenzie River.

The area elevation ranges from 1350 feet to 5340 feet and contains excellent examples of Pacific Northwest conifer forests, wildlife, and ecosystems.
