Site Description
The Teakettle 2 Creek (TECR) catchment is entirely located within the Teakettle Experimental Forest (TEF), which is located in the north part of the Kings River watershed. The TEF is owned and operated by the United States Forest Service (USFS) Pacific Southwest (PSW) Research Station. The PSW Research Station is part of the research and development arm of the Forest Service, which operates six other research stations and 81 experimental forests and ranges, including the Teakettle Experimental Forest (TEF). A large, ongoing experiment at the TEF is comparing the effects of fire and tree thinning on the ecosystem. The Teakettle 3 creek, just northeast of TECR, is currently being monitored and controlled for projects that are managed by the USFS PSW and the Kings River Experimental Watershed (KREW). The KREW is an ecosystem project examining the effects of fire and tree thinning on streams and riparian areas. Total data products planned for this site: 78
