In eastern Ohio, most climax communities are forest, defined as having a closed canopy
(75%-100% cover) allowing very little light to penetrate to the ground.2 By the end of the
study in 2000, is it likely that this old field site (at 40°N) had reached the relative stability of a
climax community? (the study began in 1950)
A. No. Most forest communities take at least 100 years to reach 75% cover.
B. No. According to the graphs, the old field will be at ~50% coverage after 50 years.
C. Yes. Unless the area has been disturbed again, it should stay stable after 10% cover.
D. Yes. At 40° latitude, over 50% of the old fields were above the stability line on the graph.
