Effects of Restoration Techniques on Breeding Birds in Thermally-Impacted Bottomland Hardwood Forests
Description:
Breeding birds were studied in the Pen Branch riparian corridor following site preparation using herbicides and burning to control willow and improve access for planting. Compared with control strips, treated areas supported a greater richness and abundance of breeding birds. The community composition was representative of early successional bottomland forests.
