Trenched Plots Under Forest Canopies, James W. Toumey, Raymond Kienholz
Yale School of the Environment Bulletin Series
The relative importance of light and soil moisture in particular is better known than that of other environmental factors. We are coming to believe that the nature and condition of the reproduction and other surface vegetation beneath living canopies are not due to any single factor such as light or soil moisture, but to a complex of factors.
Some Aspects Of Soil Moisture In The Forest, Ian J. Craib
Some Aspects Of Soil Moisture In The Forest, Ian J. Craib
Yale School of the Environment Bulletin Series
By determining the moisture content of carefully selected soil samples taken at various depths down to three feet, the moisture content of soils in the forest and in the open have been compared. The soils investigated were similar in their mechanical properties. Part I is an investigation of the effect of forest cover on the amount of water in the soil over the growing season and its availability. Part II is an investigation of the effect of root competition on the available water supply of forest soils.

In October, 1905, nineteen permanent sample plots were established in the white pine type near Keene, New Hampshire, by the United States Forest Service in cooperation with the Faulkner and Colony Manufacturing Company on lands owned by the latter. The plots were remeasured in 1909 and again in 1915 by representatives of the United States Forest Service. After the 1915 measurement the plots were turned over to the Yale School of Forestry. In September, 1920, the plots were remeasured for the third time, three additional plots were established and six of the original plots were discontinued. Fifteen years have elapsed …
