Long-Term Ecological Research (LTER)/CDR023: Variations in Small Mammal Populations of Successional Old Fields at Cedar Creek

Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR

LTER - Long-Term Ecological Research Program/Cedar Creek Natural History Area (CDR) LTER/CDR023 [Summary adapted from the LTER Core Data Set Catalog]: Small mammals are sampled each summer in late August and early September by snap-trapping along four permanent transects in each of 19 old-fields.

Description

Six species occur regularly in these samples: Peromyscus maniculatus, Microtus pennsylvanicus, Sorex cinereus, Blarina brevicauda, Zapus hudsonius, and Mus musculus.

Pocket gopher disturbance has been estimated along these transects less frequently, but is now a regular part of the annual survey. Grasshoppers, vegetation, and soils are also sampled regularly along these transects. Proprietary limits: Access limited, but available with permission from investigators, until subsets are published.

The Cedar Creek Natural History Area (CCNHA) is a 2200 hectare experimental ecological reserve operated by the University of Minnesota in cooperation with the Minnesota Academy of Sciences. CCNHA is located in Anoka and Isanti Counties north of Minneapolis/St. Paul.

The site was established in 1940, was designated a National Natural Landmark by the National Park Service in 1975. In 1977 it was included as an Experimental Ecology Reserve in a proposed network, and in 1982 it was one of 11 sites in the U.S. selected by the National Science Foundation for funding of LTER. Information about LTER is also available at 'lternet.edu/'
