  • Prairie Or Woodland? Reconstructing Past Plant Communities at Good Earth State Park Via Soil Core and Tree Ring Analysis
    Proceedings of the South Dakota Academy of Science, Vol. 94 (2015) 227 PRAIRIE OR WOODLAND? RECONSTRUCTING PAST PLANT COMMUNITIES AT GOOD EARTH STATE PARK VIA SOIL CORE AND TREE RING ANALYSIS Craig N. Spencer1*, Mason D. VanEssen1, Elizabeth A. Renner1, and W. Carter Johnson2 1Biology Department Augustana University Sioux Falls, South Dakota 57197 2Department of Natural Resource Management South Dakota State University Brookings, SD 57007 *Corresponding author email: [email protected] ABSTRACT The hills and ravines of oodG Earth State Park, located in southeastern South Dakota, currently support extensive woodlands interspersed with small upland prairies. Analysis of stable carbon isotopes from soil cores suggests that the prairies were much more extensive in the past and that the woodlands have expanded in recent years. Soil carbon isotope values (δ13C) from forested ravines and upland prairie sites show a strong C4 native grass signature, around -16‰ at the deeper depths, suggesting widespread prairie dominance throughout the park in the past. At the forested sites, δ13C values decreased significantly towards the soil surface reaching average values from -23 to -25‰. Such values are characteristic of C3 woody plants, providing evidence that over time, woodlands have replaced the native prairies. By contrast, soil cores from the few remaining upland prairie sites showed consistent δ13C values from top to bottom, around -16‰, suggesting these sites have remained dominated by prairies for many years. Tree core samples taken from the larger bur oaks (Quercus macrocarpa) at Good Earth yielded maximum ages of approximately 125 years. The apparent absence of older trees in the park is consistent with the stable isotope analysis suggesting that the woodlands at Good Earth have appeared rather recently.

Participants agree to establish grass and forbs on cropland for 5 years and in return receive free seed and a one-time payment of $150 per acre at the beginning of the contract. No haying or grazing is allowed until after August 1 of the second growing season. Between August 1 and March 1, haying is allowed every two years or on 1/2 of the enrolled acres each year; grazing is allowed annually. Frequently Asked Questions 1. Who administers the agreements for the Second Century Habitat working lands program? Participants who enroll in this habitat program will be executing an agreement with the Second Century Habitat Fund, which is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization dedicated to wildlife habitat. Incentive payments will be provided to participating landowners from the Second Century Habitat Fund. 2. How many acres can be enrolled? Minimum size of an individual planting must be 10 acres. The maximum acres each participant can enroll in the program is 160 acres. 3. What acres are eligible to be enrolled in the program? The focus of this program is to enroll marginal cropland such as saline and moist soils, field edges, other less productive soil types or areas producers want to manage as wildlife habitat. 4. How do participants receive the free seed? Upon execution of the agreement, seed will be shipped directly to participating producers at no cost.

There is just no other option for permanently saving and providing places for wildlife to survive and places to hunt and fish for the average person. As it gets harder and harder to find private land where access is allowed, increased public areas are are a necessity to keep our outdoor traditions going. lvlore specifically, wetland areas east of the Missouri River should be the main focus of future acquisitions. With the draining of wetlands happening at an ever increasing rate, it is important to save as many as possible now. Of course wetlands and surrounding prairie deliver the most bang for the buck in wildlife production and protection. It seems the most resistance to further land acquisitions comes from the western part of the state. Given the amount of Walk-ln area available there, maybe GF&P should concentrate their acquisition effo(s elsewhere. Thank you for your consideration.
