1 Transition Zones in the Cathance River Preserve Chloe Emerson and Katrina Cornish
2 Purpose Determine whether plants and soil moisture content differ as distance from a vernal pool changes.
3 Hypothesis Plant types will change along the transect and soil moisture content will increase as distance from the vernal pool decreases.
4 Background Information Transect -A transect is defined as a straight line that can be used to perform scientific tests and observe how different variables affect different factors along the line. Some variables include elevation and proximity to water. Vernal Pool -A seasonal wetland area that is dependent on rainfall for life to exist. Soil Moisture -The amount of water in soil is the soil moisture. The gaps in between soil particles are called pore spaces or voids; these voids are filled with either water or air. Temperature -The measure of kinetic energy caused by the movement of atoms and molecules.
5 Background Information Cont. Plants Identified Along the Transect Balsam Fir (Abie Balsamea) Goldenrod (Solidago) Eastern White Pine (Pinus Strobus) Wintergreen (Gaultheria procumbens L.) Wild Lilly of the Valley (Maianthemum canadense) Hairy Cap Moss (Polytrichum commune) Wild Strawberry plants (Fragaria vesca) Bristly Dewberry (Rubus hispidis) Star Flowers (Trientalis borealis) Oak Trees (Quercus) Red Maple (Acer rubrum) Sweet Birch (Betula lenta) Midway Peat Moss (Sphagnum megellanicum) Bur-reed (Sparganium americanum) Sallow Sedge (Carex lurida) Sweet Fern (Comptonia peregrina) Cotton Grass (Eriophorum) Red Raspberry (Rubus idaeus L.) Dark Green Bulrush (Scirpus atrovirens) Soft Rush (Juncus effuses)
6 Procedure 1.) Attach 23 meters, 39 centimeters of rope to 3 tomato stakes. Plant tomato stakes in the ground, this will be the transect line. Have the line running from the vernal pool uphill into the woods. 2.) Determine the relative elevation along the transect. 3.) Take soil samples from ground around each stake using garden shovel. 4.) Place the samples in 3 different bags marked for each stake. 5.) Find the mass of each sample of soil and record in a data table.
7 Procedure Cont. 6.) Dry sample in an incubator and mass again to find the percentage of water in the soil. 7.) Repeat steps 3-6 every other week. 8.) Beginning at the tomato stake farthest from the vernal pool use a 1m by 1m PVC pipe square and identify all plants within the square using field guides specific to the area. Continue to identify and record identifications every week until all plants within the square have been identified, then move square to next tomato stake. 9.) Repeat step 8 until you have identified all plants at each tomato stake. 10.) Continue steps 3-9 for at least six weeks.

11 Site 3: 0 meters from vernal pool
12 Data Tables, Graphs and Observations
13 Star Flower Wintergreen Cotton Grass
14 Plant species changed along the transect, however some species grew in two sites, such as the Wintergreen which was found in site 1 and site 2 and the Hairy Cap Moss which was found in site 2 and site 3.
15 Soil Temperature Soil Temperature
16 Soil temperature closest to the Vernal pool was found to be the warmest, because it was the wettest site and water retains heat. The driest site, site 2, was also found to be the coldest.
17
18 Soil Moisture Soil Moisture
19
20 Site two was the driest, even though it wasn t the farthest site from the vernal pool. There was a spike in elevation between the second site and the third site, causing the third site to have a lot of runoff, making it wetter.
21 Relative Elevation
22
23 The chosen sites and their corresponding elevations may have been a source of error because the elevation increased suddenly between the middle site and the site farthest from the vernal pool causing precipitation runoff in the site farthest from the vernal pool.
24 Conclusion - Plant types changed along the transect, becoming more water oriented as the transect approached the vernal pool. This supported the hypothesis. - Soil moisture content did not increase consistently as distance from the vernal pool decreased. This did not support the hypothesis.
25 Recommendations for Future Research - Choose a more consistent slope for a transect. - Measure the elevation changes along the transect. - Take soil samples and temperature every week instead of every other week. - Make observations about weather. - Sample at more sites along the transect. - Identify plants earlier. - Experiment with a steeper slope and perhaps try to determine if the steep decline in elevation lead to a large runoff of precipitation. - Experiment on the other side of the vernal pool to see what different variables, plants, and conditions are over there - Observe two separate transects on each side of the vernal pool. - Observe plant growth in relation to moisture content of the soil or amount of precipitation in relation to the moisture content.
