On the left in the foreground is Old-field Plot D, a 10-year-rotation plot to be started later in 1997.

On the right in the foreground is a portion of what will become Old-field Plot B.

Near the center of the picture, the trunk of a large longleaf pine is hidden by oak foliage.

Beyond Plots D and B is an area that will become Old-field Plots C and A.

February 2007

On the left is Old-field Plot D, started in 1997 and now being prepared for a re-start later in 2007.

On the right in the foreground is a small portion of Plot B; beyond that is Old-field Plot A, a 10-year-rotation plot started in 2002.

Near the center of the picture, the trunk of the large longleaf pine that was hidden by oak foliage in the 1997 picture is now visible but draped with Spanish moss.

In the background is partially restored upland pine.
