Snags, standing dead trees, are used by many species of wildlife. Despite the importance of snags their basic ecology remains unknown.
Some forest management practices eliminate snags from the forest with a concomitant effect upon snag-dependent wildlife. My objective was to describe the density, spatial distribution, and physical character of...
The goal of this project is to recommend a broadly-acceptale efficient and effective methodology for characterizing streamside riparian attributes in forested settings at the site grain for regional monitoring. The authors consider monitoring design in the context of three interacting constraints: ecological functions, capabilities of technologies, and user needs. The...
