- W1577885899 abstract "—Evergreen understory communities dominated by Rhododendron maximum and/ or Kalmia latifolia may exert significant controls on regeneration of overstory trees and nutrient retention in central Appalachian forests, but the regional distribution and ecological importance of these communities are poorly documented. We employed leaf-off satellite remote sensing combined with field sampling and quantitative analyses to assess patterns of R. maximum and K. latifolia distribution. We compared topographically mediated distributions of these species in the warm and dry Ridge and Valley physiographic province and on the cooler and wetter Allegheny Plateau. The spatial extent of each understory community (either R. maximum or K. latifolia) was estimated with greater than 80 percent accuracy using leaf-off Landsat data combined with topographic data. Using clustering analysis and non-metric multidimensional scaling (NMS) with plot survey data, we found that R. maximum and K. latifolia varied from each other in their species associations, and that topographic exposure, relative wetness, and intensity of gypsy moth defoliation were the chief environmental variables explaining differences in distribution between the two study areas. ANOVA demonstrated significant differences in mid-story volume of canopy tree species where evergreen understory species were prominent, indicating that these communities substantially influence overall forest structure, stand dynamics, and regeneration." @default.
