Great Smoky Mountains Institute at Tremont Terrestrial salamander monitoring- a comparison of cover boards and forest types.
Citizen scientists at Great Smoky Mountains Institute at Tremont (GSMIT) compare salamander diversity and abundance between two types of tree cookie cover boards, pitch pine and chestnut oak, and two forest types, hardwood versus Eastern hemlock forest. Four sites at GSMIT each with 40 cookies are monitored frequently. For more information about the project, see GSMIT's website: http://www.gsmit.org/CSSalamanderTerr.html
