Abstract:
Rodent-Mouse long-term monitoring survey in the Nakagawa Experiment Forest (compartment 186,214) since 1991. The surveys have been held in the two plots (50m x 100m, distance between the plots is around 300m). The plot in the compartment186 is characterized as the natural mixed forest (i.e., needle and broad leave) with bamboo. The plot in the compartment 214 is characterized as the planted forest of Japanese ash (Fraxinus mandshurica) with herbaceous plants. The surveys were held for 3 days in spring (May to June) and autumn (September to October) every year. In each plot, 50 Sherman traps were settled in grid patterns with 10-m intervals (5 Rows x 10 Columns). The captured mice and rodents were recorded their species identity, sex, mass, and were also marked individually by toe-clipping. After these processing, the individuals were released at their captured location immediately.
