The National Wildlife Refuge System, Division of Biological Services is offering this grant to evaluate the critical effects of altered hydrologic regimes on forest succession in the bottomland hardwood forests of Deep Fork National Wildlife Refuge. This initiative aims to determine if these hydrological changes are linked to observed forest declines and shifting succession patterns. The core objectives include assessing the current forest condition, establishing permanent plots for long-term monitoring, and identifying the relationship between forest conditions and landscape position factors, such as elevation and proximity to rivers, which influence the local hydrologic regime. This comprehensive study will provide essential data for understanding and managing these vital forest ecosystems.

| Description: | This agreement is being implemented in order to evaluate the effects of altered hydrologic regime on forest succession in bottomland hardwood forests of Deep Fork NWR and whether these effects are related to observed declines in the forest and changing forest succession. The objective is to determine the current forest condition, establish permanent plots for long-term monitoring, and determine the relationship amoung forest conditions and landscape position factors such as elevation and proximity to river that hydrologic regime for a given location. |
