Abstract

The objective of the study on whicii the present report is based was to determine the rate of flooding mortality in various Mississippi River Valley tree species and the rate and effect of tree fall; in the course of the study, brief consideration was given to plant and animal succession following the death of timber stands. The report covers principally the period beginning in September, 1939, and ending in October, 1946.
