Robinson Forest
Current Program Schedule Application for use of facilities Map from Lexington to Jackson Map from Jackson to the forest
The Robinson Forest , managed for research, teaching and Extension education by the University of Kentucky Department of Forestry, is one of the largest research and educational forests in the eastern United States Robinson Forest is a collection of seven tracts totaling 14,800 acres, and is located on the Cumberland Plateau in southeastern Kentucky The forest was conveyed in trust to the University of Kentucky in 1923 by the E.O.Robinson Mountain Fund for the purposes of agricultural experiment work, teaching, and the demonstration of reforestation. Except for small remnants of old growth, the virgin timber was logged from Robinson Forest prior to 1923. However, continued protection from mining,commercial logging, and fire has resulted in a healthy second growth forest. The plant communities in Robinson Forest are excellent examples of the mixed mesophytic type, which is characterized by high diversity of species and complex structure. The variable, dissected topography of Robinson Forest contributes to a wide variety of microclimatic conditions of sites and provides a unique outdoor laboratory in which to conduct long-term forest research.

Innovation: Macromedia Authorware Database
A Macromedia Authorware-based software program developed by Richard Croft, a graduate student in EDCI, provides an extensive collection of almost a thousand visuals to aid students in mastering the extensive information required for the course. Students are required to learn 131 tree species, and must be able to identify them by any of six attributes, such as bark, leaves, fruit, or twigs. Correct identification requires that they know the common and scientific names of each species, with a high value placed on accurate spelling. The program presents information to students in a tutorial format, in which they can work at their own pace and revisit the information until they have mastered it. Students can test themselves in a variety of ways for as long as they like, at various levels of difficulty, until they are confident they have mastered the material.

Shagbark hickory Juglandaceae Carya ovata (P. Mill.) K. Koch
Leaf: Alternate, pinnately compound with 5 (sometimes 7) leaflets 8 to 14 inches long. The lateral leaflets are obovate to lanceolate. The terminal leaflets are much larger than the laterals.

Flowers appear April to June. Fruit: Nearly round, 1 1/2 inches, with a very thick husk. The nut is 4-ribbed, and the seed is sweet and delicious, maturing from September to October. Twig: Stout and usually glabrous, but may be somewhat pubescent. The leaf scars are raised, 3-lobed to semicircularbest described as a "monkey face". Lenticels are apparent. The terminal bud is large, brown, and pubescent, covered with 3 to 4 brown scales. Bark: First smooth and gray. Later broken into long plates attached at the middle, curving away from the trunk resulting in a coarsely shaggy appearance. Form: A medium to tall tree with a straight trunk and an open, round to oblong crown.

Humberto,
Greetings from Chicago. I hope all ...... I begin teaching next week as many .....
I am including some statements about the course you may use in any way you would like. Please feel free to have anyone interested in the course to contact me via email or telephone for a reference.
(Underlined was made by Humberto Jiménez Saa) The course is an outstanding introduction and foundation to tropical dendrology. I would highly recommend it to any serious student or scientist who is interested in developing a comprehensive foundation and in advancing their knowledge of tropical forest systems. There are three primary reasons the course is so outstanding and rewarding. The first is the unique teaching methodology which allows the student to identify 60-85% of specimens encountered to the family level with only vegetative characteristics. I never thought this possible but the system of organization, the gradual and repetitive manner in which it is implemented, and the development of a comprehensive key or Matrix make this level of accuracy possible. A second reason for the quality of the course is the support by several experts in the field of tropical botany who accompany the course. Typically representing top people from the University of Costa Rica and the National Herbarium they provide a depth of background and detail that makes identification more than an exercise in keying but one of depth and understanding.

91. BRF Curriculum>
Forest Ecology A series of field classes tailored to grade level designed dendrology- Students learn to decipher some of the complexity of the forest
http://www.blackrockforest.org/education/curriculum.html
Educational Programs at Black Rock Forest
Orientation:
Getting acquainted with Black Rock Forest involves hiking the mountainous terrain, visiting major habitat types, examining old homesteads, and discussing the forest's unique history and current focus. A complementary geographic orientation introduces map reading and compass skills to increase spatial awareness. Further explorations include solo walks, intended to expose students individually to the forest to concentrate on sense awareness of the surrounding forest life.
Integrated Biology Classes 1. Habitats- This one-day or multiple-visit class lets students explore three or four distinct forest habitats (e.g. ridge-top, conifer forest, deciduous forest, pond) and the relationships between the physical characteristics, microclimate, flora and fauna at each site.
2. Stream and Watershed Ecology- Three interrelated topics (the watershed concept, aquatic biology, and environmental chemistry) are introduced during a top-to-bottom traverse of one of Black Rock's major stream watersheds. Water sampling techniques and field quality tests are demonstrated. and students may take samples back to the classroom for further testing. A detailed database and samples of recent precipitation as well as Hudson River water can be provided. Invertebrate surveys are always a favorite of students.
3. Pond Ecology- Darn causeways (and in certain cases boats) can be used for access to study the food webs and physical conditions in Black Rock's major ponds. Seasonal changes are discussed (or can be studied over several trips) as are the effects of acid rain. A workshop component focuses on anatomy, behavior and identification of native cold and warm water fishes.
