Long-Term Ecological Research (LTER)/AND009: H.J. Andrews Forest Tagged Log Inventory

Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR

Description

LTER - Long-Term Ecological Research Program/H.J. Andrews Forest (AND) LTER/AND009 [Summary adapted from the LTER Core Data Set Catalog]: Woody debris larger than 10 cm in diameter and 1 m in length was tagged in the stream channel and floodplain for a 1.1-km reach (350 m in clearcut; 750 m in old-growth forest) of Mack Creek. Mack Creek is a third-order stream in a 500-year-old conifer forest. Each piece is numbered, and the following characteristics are described: longitudinal position, geomorphic location, log dimensions, decay class, origin, moss cover, root wad, and channel angle.

The reach is reinventoried annually in October. New debris is tagged and described each year. 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.
