Abstract

The Woodworth Study Area (WSA) was purchased by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) during the early 1960's as a waterfowl production area.  Unlike most such areas, its primary purpose was not to provide waterfowl breeding habitat directly, but instead it was dedicated for use as a research area to develop information for better management of upland and wetland habitats.  This article provides some history of the area and background information about biological monitoring and research that have been conducted on the WSA.  Unless otherwise stated, information included in derived from (1) or unpublished data on file at the Northern Prairie Science Center (NPSC).
