"The Effects of Periodical Cicadas (Magicicada spp.)对南印第安纳州树木年轮生长的研究.(格雷厄姆·毕晓普)

Abstract
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of Brood X periodical cicadas (Magicicada spp.) on annual growth increment in hardwood trees throughout the southern region of Indiana. Twenty-one study sites have been established in proximity to Bloomington, Indiana. We have selected 25 trees on each site (441 trees total) and installed dendrometer bands on all of the trees. Twenty-three species are represented in this analysis. Study areas include several forest settings (i.e.河漫滩、高地、洼地等.). We took two cores per tree at breast height (1.距离地面4米)和一个5.15mm瑞典增量钻孔机. The annual rings on these cores will be crossdated, measured, and statistically analyzed to produce a correlation between yearly treering growth and periodical cicada damage to the trees. 完成实验室分析后, we will examine the effects of periodical cicadas on the incremental growth of all the sampled species.

"Spring Ephemeral Plant Diversity as it Relates to Gap Dynamics in Vigo County, Indiana.(乔迪·法雷尔·斯帕克斯)

Abstract
Dendrochronological techniques were used to quantify canopy gaps in Indiana to determine the effect of this disturbance on spring ephemeral diversity. Canopy gaps were selected within seven pre-existing plots that were established as early as 25 years ago. Storm data was collected and overlaid on an aerial photo of the county to identify potential sources of gaps. Climate data (temperature and precipitation) was used to visually determine if years of suppression were due to climate rather than gap effects. Release and suppression criteria were used to identify canopy gaps and the trees responses. Canopy gaps as recorded by ring-width release were compared to plant diversity data through time. Gaps were mainly created by one tree and were on average 330 m2 in size. At present, we found a decrease in diversity of spring ephemerals at the family, genus, 以及过去25年的物种水平. On average, Acer saccharum on this site experienced three major gap events in their lifetime and are sensitive to gap dynamics with numerous suppressions and releases in the trees. Fagus grandifolia is also sensitive to gap dynamics residing in the understory for several years. 黄樟、栎属.和Carya sp. are not sensitive to canopy gaps, rarely if ever recording them in their tree rings. We are continuing to examine the relationship between these gap events and spring ephemeral diversity.
