Revegetation After Strip Cutting and Block Clearcutting in Northern Hardwoods

S2Revegetation was studied during the first 10 years after clearcutting two sites in the northern hardwood forest of New Hampshire. One site was a 12-ha block clearcut; the other was a 36-ha progressive strip cut harvested in three phases. Permanent plots on each site were measured at 140 4-year intervals. Changes in the density and biomass of trees, shrubs, and herbs are presented with emphasis on the major commercial species and their primary noncommercial competitors. S3.
