Studies in Biodiversity
Biodiversity and conservation students visited Langley Oaks as part of their study of secondary ecological succession of old fields. They observed the structure, species composition, and other characteristics of the beech forest at Langley Oaks. They also compared it to two sites on Potomac's campus to try to determine the relative successional stages of each.
