Abstract:
Rodent-Mouse long-term monitoring survey in the Uryu Experiment Forest (compartment 415,416) since 1992. This survey has been held in the two plots (50m x 100m): One of the plots is set in the natural forest (compartment 416). Another plot is set in the artificial forest of Japanese ash (Fraxinus mandshurica)(compartment 415). The surveys were held for 3 days in spring (May-June) and autumn (September - November) every year. In each plot, 50 Sherman traps were settled in grid patterns with 10-m intervals (5 Rows x 10 Columns). We recorded species identity, sex, mass of the captured mice and rodents. The captured individuals were marked individually by toe-clipping method. After these processing, the individuals were released at their captured location immediately. Note that the forest type of the artificial forest plot has changed into the secondary forest as a result of the natural succession process mainly due to occupation by birch species.
