The Dartmouth Alumni Magazine January - February 2020 issue features the Second College Grant ASCC site.
"The Fate of the Forest" article highlights the leadership and innovation of Kevin Evans (Director of Woodlands, Dartmouth College), Tony D'Amato (Professor, University of Vermont), and Chris Woodall (Research Forester, USDA Forest Service Northern Research Station) in managing Dartmouth's Second College Grant, the New England ASCC Network site.
Small Mammals, Mycorrhizal Fungi, and Forest Regeneration
Small mammals and mycorrhizal fungi are integral component to forests, yet much remains unknown about how their interactions contribute to the health and resiliency of forests. At the Second College Grant ASCC installation in northern New Hampshire, University of New Hampshire researchers are studying the role of small mammals (mice, voles, chipmunks) in dispersing mycorrhizal fungi and subsequent effects on forest regeneration.

University of Vermont Article: Adapting Forests for Change
One of the five sites of the ASCC Network is led by Dr. Tony D’Amato, a professor at the University of Vermont Rubenstein School of Environment and Natural Resources. In late May, 11 University of Vermont researchers and students planted 7,000 seedlings at the Second College Grant ASCC site in northern New Hampshire.
