The current investigation evaluates the potential of spectral indices of foliar reflectance, measures of leaf area and bud quality, and historic trends in sap sugar and wood increments for detecting stress in sugar maple. Thirty trees were examined in 10 plots on 5 sugar bushes in or near the Bearcamp Valley, New Hampshire, over the course of the 2008 growing season. The study found water stress in 100% of trees; reduced chlorophyll content in 60%; early abscission of leaves in 80%; reduced growing season in 70%; and poor fall foliage color in 80%. Drought in early summer and unusually heavy rain in mid-summer are likely factors. Despite stress, 73% of the trees produced high quality buds. Differences in stand management, site conditions, and prior stresses account for differences in response to stress. XIII Chapter I Introduction and Literature Review Climate Change Five global climate models (GCMs), recently released by the United Nations' Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change(IPCC), agree that annual minimum temperatures over the next century are likely to rise 3.2 to 5.4°C.

  • Common Questions Asked About Maple Sugaring in North America; Answered Using Documentation from the Colonial Era
    Common Questions asked about Maple Sugaring in North America; Answered using Documentation from the Colonial Era. Compiled by Jeff Pavlik colonialbaker.net The purpose of this paper is to present an extensive survey of primary source documents that relate to the making of maple sugar in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. I have included some authors from the nineteenth century who provided observations of common practices and terms that sharpen the details of our understanding of sugaring during this era. The structure of this paper allows for people interested in public education, historical reenactment or further research to look at the subject through the eyes of those who witnessed these events rather than my own interpretation and prose. I hope that by providing answers to common questions about sugaring the educator can anticipate what the public might be interested in, and then fashion a narrative explanation that focuses attention to historical knowledge of a specific time and place. What was said by those who were sugaring in the colonial era is always more interesting than broad statements and wide-sweeping generalizations of modern writers. My own bias and interest in Native and French cultures of the Great Lakes during this period is evident from the sources I draw upon. But it should be noted that these sources tended to be more extensive and illustrative than documents from this era in the British colonies. There is quite a bit of information on sugaring during the first decades of the United States, some of these documents reference in passing sugaring at an early time in the colonies.

This book was undertaken with a view to mental rest and relaxation. The author had not the time nor means to go to the mountains or seashore for u season of recuperation, and so wrote this volume. Three of the chapters— viii., xviii., and xix. —were penned some years ago. The remainder of the book was written during a part of the spring and summer of the present year. As the author wrote, his eyes were often wet with tears, and frequently the smiles would play about the mouth over the facts and fancies that (lowed from his pen.

Yanai, Major Professor Timothy Toland, Chair Examining Committee David Newman, Department Chair S. Scott Shannon, Dean The Graduate School © 2014 Copyright Adam D. Wild All rights reserved Acknowledgements This study would not have been possible without the assistance of my advisor Ruth Yanai who diligently worked with me and provided the opportunity to explore my own interest. My graduate committee members Chris Nowak, Colin Beier and Mike Farrell were always willing to provide assistance. Acknowledgement of Eric Randall for his advice on sap sampling is necessary along with Tim Wilmot, Tim Perkins, Steve Childs, Paul Schaberg, Heidi Asbjornsen, Adan Hernádez, and Sandy Wilmot for their many contributions. Mike Wild willing helped during the last sap sampling period which allowed for a shorter day in the field. Gas exchange measurements could not have been taken without Katherine Sinacore operating the portable photosynthesis system. Chris Costello was always willing to assist me with the snowmobile for sap sampling and ensure I came out of the woods safely. Melany Fisk was gracious in providing the soils data. Members of my lab, Craig See, Franklin Diggs, Yang Yang and Yi Dong were always willing to provide feedback on results. Foliage and tree growth sampling was completed by members of the MELNHE summer field crew including Eric MacPherson who assisted with the canopy assessment.
