Not sure if this was posted on here yet, but I just read through about 15 blog posts from this study.
The goals and objectives for this study address the information needs and research questions of each collaborator.

[*]Test the assumption that FIA categorical deer impact levels accurately reflect the effect of deer browsing on forest conditions. Identify modifications that could improve the accuracy of monitoring programs of forest conditions in relation to deer browsing.

[*]Evaluate the effectiveness of DMAP to increase antlerless harvest in a local area.

[*]Monitor hunter behavior and attitudes in response to changes in deer abundance.

[*]Test the ability of DCNR’s Vegetation Impact Protocol to detect changes in vegetation in response to changes in deer abundance.

Current funding will support the project for the period 2013-2017.

Four study areas (see maps) , ranging in size from 25 to 40 square miles, have been selected – one each in Rothrock State Forest and Bald Eagle State Forest and two in Susquehannock State Forest.
Movements of male and female deer, reports on weather related movements, rut movements, hunter pressure, and the like.
Read through some of the blog posts beginning in 2013.
Here are a few:
