(Bioscience, 2001)This article discusses acid deposition in the regions of New England and New York. Most of the information focuses on what has been learn since the enactment of amendments to the Clean Air Act (CAAA) in 1990. These ...
-
(Cornell University, 2006)This study looks at the impact of large-scale climate variability on New York’s reservoir system and whether interdecadal climate variations alter the influence of shorter interannual climate modes on water availability. ...
-
(Global Change Biology 9, 2003)Soil samples from monospecific plots of three of Catskill Mountains’ predominant tree species (American beech, northern red oak and sugar maple) were examined for comparison of nitrogen uptake/decomposition rates. Implications ...
-
(Canadian Journal of Forest Research, 2008)This study shows shifting tree species composition/dominance (and associated ecosystem processes) following varying degrees of beech bark disease at high-elevation plots in the West Kill – Stony Clove watersheds.
-
(Eastern New York Chapter – The Nature Conservancy, 2007)This TNC report presents the results of a trailhead/trail surveys in the Catskill Mountains for the invasive garlic mustard. The goals of this study were to determine if garlic mustard was present at trailhead parking ...
-
(Canadian Journal of Forest Research, 2009)This literature review concentrates on the observed and potential effects of climate change on native fauna of forests in northeastern North American by focusing on mammals, birds, amphibians, and insects.
-
Consequences of climate change for biogeochemical cycling in forests of northeastern North America. (Canadian Journal of Forest Research, 2009)This literature review summarizes the existing state-of-knowledge on how climate change affects cycles of element at the ecosystem scale. It pulls information gained from long-term observations, experimental manipulations, ...
-
(Ecosystems, 2002)This study examines the relationships between stream chemistry, the properties of the forest floor, and tree species composition of watersheds. Nitrate export in forested watersheds is influenced by the carbon:nitrogen ...
-
(Canadian Journal of Forest Research, 2003)Surveys done between 1997 and 2000 denote significant presence of beech bark disease within Catskill Mountain watersheds. The article provides historical reference to distribution and abundance of both the tree species and ...
-
(Environmental Pollution 123, 2003)This report presents a summary of findings from other studies done mainly in the Adirondack and Catskill Mountains. Although the findings are applicable to conditions in the Catskill Mountains there are no quantitative ...
-
(The New York Invasive Species Clearinghouse, 2011)This is a Cornell Cooperative Extension website providing various forms of information about the emerald ash borer including biology, identification, hosts, signs and symptoms, management and control, and other resources.
-
(Estuaries, 1996)This is a compilation of information about the distribution of exotic organisms in the fresh waters of the Hudson River basin. The authors estimate that 10% of introduced species have had major ecological impacts. The ...
-
(Hudsonia Institute, 2009)Knotweed stands are widespread, and in many places extensive, on the banks and floodplain of the Batavia Kill. Three different treatments were applied to an infested area (woody planting, herbicide injection, and frequent ...
-
(Soil Science Society of America Journal, 2003)Nitrogen retention in soil organic matter (SOM) is a major process influencing the accumulation and loss of nitrogen in forest ecosystems. This study compares the immobilization of ammonium, nitrite, and nitrate in soils ...
-
(BioScience, 2006)Through the use of three examples of introduced pathogens to the eastern forest (Gypsy moth, Hemlock woolly adelgid, Beech bark disease) the authors identify six biological features of the pathogens and the ecology of their ...
-
(Northeastern Environmental Science NOESDE, 1989)The increasing demands for palatable drinking water as a result of increasing utilization has made an exact assessment of availability from the major watersheds that supply the New York City metropolitan area necessary. ...
-
(Soil Science Society of America Journal, 2009)This study shows how soils under five different tree species in the Catskill Mountains had highly significant differences in rates of nitrogen transformations; this is a key variable controlling the efficiency of nitrogen ...
-
(Ecosystems 8, 2005)This study explores repercussions of nitrogen retention variation across landscapes and amongst select tree species. Future changes in tree species composition due to documented pathogen-induced mortality in the region ...
-
(BioScience, 2003)This report is a synthesis of existing data sets for the northeastern United States where the authors address whether or not nitrogen deposition is altering the nitrogen status of forest ecosystems in this region.
-
(NYSDEC Biology Reports for East Central New York - Region 4, 2010)This one-page report documents the discovery of this exotic species within the watershed and provides basic background information as well as a photo.
