Test the use of ground dwelling Carabid and Collembola insects to monitor the impacts of forestry practices on the stability and long-term health of the soil habitat.Forest Ecosystem Management Demonstration Project: Carabid/Collembola population impacts of management practices in high elevation northern hardwood stands: Pretreatment population/soil characteristicParkerBruce L.TobiDonBrownbridgeMichaelCostaScottsoil propertiesresource managementforestsinsectsbioindicatorForest Ecosystem Management Demonstration Project: Soil 20022001-07-012005-12-31Measurements of organic matter, nitrogen, nitrate, ammonium, phosphorous, calcium, potassium, magnesium, sodium, iron, manganese, boron, copper, and zinc concentrations in 7 soil samples To establish baseline data on Carabid and Collembola populations in the planned silvicultural treatment units and measure their effectiveness to monitor forest soil healthZ0136_FEMDPsoil02VMC.136.175mySQLSandra Wilmot. 2002.
