Acadian Flycatcher Response to Deteriorating Eastern Hemlock Conditions in Two Hemlock Dominated Habitats in DEWA and Delaware State Forest

Napoli M. Acadian Flycatcher Response to Deteriorating Eastern Hemlock Conditions in Two Hemlock Dominated Habitats in DEWA and Delaware State Forest. Research Permit and Reporting System

To understand the response of Acadian Flycatchers (ACFL) to changes in hemlock stands (HS), comparisons were made to a previous study conducted in the same locations (Sheehan 2003) and between two habitat types, ravines and benches that exhibit varying levels of hemlock decline. Results indicated a significant decrease overall HS health between study years as well as in ACFL pair density, but bench sites are generally healthier than ravine sites.
