The Norway maple forest in Acadia National Park: Initial response to management
Burka J, Fetgatter A, Stevenson N, Wheeler J. 2018. The Norway maple forest in Acadia National Park: Initial response to management. National Park Service, Acadia National Park
From the abstract: "The non-native tree, Norway maple (Acer platanoides) has been identified as a priority invasive plant for management in Acadia National Park. Starting in 2018, Acadias Exotic Plant Management Team began treatment in several Norway maple stands. This presented a unique opportunity for us to research the forest changes associated with management activities through the establishment of Norway maple long term monitoring forest plots. This research will guide future management strategies of Norway maple, and enables staff to watch for the incursion of other exotic plants in to these forest systems."
