Early Red Spruce Restoration Research by the Appalachian Forest Experiment Station, 1922–1954
The original extent of red spruce encompassed as much as 1,500,000 acres in the southern Appalachians; by 1895, this had been reduced to 225,000 acres. To help restore this ecosystem, the Appalachian Forest Experiment Station (AFES) was established in 1921. Headquartered in Asheville, North Carolina...

description | The original extent of red spruce encompassed as much as 1,500,000 acres in the southern Appalachians; by 1895, this had been reduced to 225,000 acres. To help restore this ecosystem, the Appalachian Forest Experiment Station (AFES) was established in 1921. Headquartered in Asheville, North Carolina, the AFES covered an area of 120 million acres in Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, and North Carolina and parts of Kentucky, Tennessee, Alabama, and Georgia. Earl Frothingham was the first AFES director, and one of his first hires was Clarence Korstian. Red spruce studies brought Korstian to cutover lands owned by the West Virginia Pulp and Paper Company in West Virginia and Champion Paper land in North Carolina. Here, Rentch and Schuler provide details on early red spruce restoration research by AFES from 1922-1954. |
