This grant, offered by the Wildlife Refuge Department, is for the crucial purpose of monitoring Atlantic White Cedar (AWC) regeneration. The project aims to assess AWC recovery across 750 acres of previously salvage-logged and burned stands. Grant recipients will establish a grid system within each AWC unit, monitoring a minimum of 150 plots—one per five acres—to track seedling growth using defined height size classes. The core objective is to collect comprehensive data, which will then be rigorously analyzed to produce a detailed report. This report must include seedling counts per size class for each plot, precise GPS coordinates, and a clear map illustrating seedling distribution. Plot centers will be clearly marked with provided PVC posts by Refuge staff to ensure consistent, long-term monitoring.

| Description: | This project is to monitor Atlantic White Cedar (AWC) regeneration in 750 acres of salvage-logged, burned stands using height size classes: 0-0.5′; 0.5-1′, 1-1.5′; 1.5-2′, etc. Set up a grid on each AWC unit and monitor one plot per 5 acres (minimum 150 plots). Analyze data and provide report including numbers of seedlings per size class at each point, GPS coordinates of each point (sub-meter not necessary) and map showing seedling distribution. Plot centers will be marked and labeled with orange-glow painted PVC pipe posts of no less than three feet tall above ground (to be provided by the Refuge staff). See attached link to view map. |
