Abstract:The campus of the University of West Florida was constructed among second-growth longleaf pine (Pinus palustris) stands that survived extensive logging in the Florida Panhandle.

To obtain more accurate age data, one can use an increment corer to collect samples from live trees on site; more accurately, disks can be… Show more
