Bat activity in thinned, unthinned, and old-growth forests in western Oregon
Article Abstract:
Few aspects of how forest management influences the activities of bats in the Pacific Northwest are understood. A new study investigates the effects of thinned and unthinned forest stands in Western Oregon on bat activity. The theory that bat activity levels would differ in stands of different structure is explored. The study concludes that thinning young forest stands may benefit bats by creating a habitat that they can use more effectively. However, there is high use of old-growth forests which are also important bat habitats.
