We investigated species present in the seed bank (in 2004 and 2010), the seedling bank (in 2004 and 2010), and seed rain (from 2005-2015) in the Harvard Forest Hemlock Removal Experiment. Forest Ecosystem Monitoring CooperativeForest Research at Harvard ForestEmeryBooseprincipalInvestigatorSince 1907, the Harvard Forest has served as a center for research and education in forest biology and conservation. The Forest's Long Term Ecological Research (LTER) program, established in 1988 and funded by the National Science Foundation, provides a framework for much of this activity.Seed Bank in Hemlock Removal Experiment at Harvard Forest 2004-2015The impending loss of hemlock trees due to hemlock woolly adelgid (Adelges tsuga) infestation prompted the need to identify species of plants able to colonize areas where hemlock has been removed.
