Vegetation and microclimates on north and south slopes of Cushetunk Mountain, New Jersey.

The aims of this study were first, to make a relatively complete analysis of the plant communities found on adjoining north and south facing slopes. Second, to study during all seasons of the year, the nature of the microclimatic layers on the two slopes and to determine the magnitude of the differences in microclimate between the slopes. Third, to investigate some of the periodic vegetational and species phenomena on the two slopes, and to analyze the observed differences in periodicity in the light of the seasonal changes in the environmental differences between the slopes.
