The geographical location in central New England, the range                and diversity of the vegetation and the detailed historical                     records of the Harvard Forest together comprise a unique site for               the study of forest ecology, forest microbiology, land management               and regional planning for the northeastern US.  This project will               foster two major areas of effort at the Forest.  1)  Forest                     ecological research at the site is focussed on the effects of                   major disturbances due to catastrophic wind damage on the                       structural patterns of vegetation, considered at the species,                   stand and landscape scales.  Techniques will be generated for the               analysis and simulation of such events using computer graphics,                 including the development of a geographical information system                  for the Forest.  Funds will be used to purchase a state-of-the-                 art microcomputer system and associated software.  2)  Forest                   soil microbiology at the Forest is centered on the optimization                 of forest tree-soil microorganism symbioses with emphasis on                    symbiotic dinitrogen fixation by actinomycete-nodulated woody                   dicots and on inorganic mineral nutrient uptake, especially                     phosphorus, facilitated by vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal                     associations.  Funds will be used to build a small laboratory and               to provide refrigerator and freezer facilities needed by the soil               microbiology researchers.
