This assessment is intended to help conservation agencies, planners and organizations direct their resources to the most important places for supporting the ecoregion's biodiversity.
This site provides a variety of tools and resources for citizens and local governments interested in developing, revising, or evaluating local tree ordinances. Rather than using a "model ordinance" approach, we describe how tree ordinance development can be integrated with an overall community tree management program. The site includes annotated...
Concerns about the extent to which major Pacific Northwest floods over the last decade might have been exacerbated by logging have heightened the need for a better scientific understanding of the role of forest maturity on snow accumulation and melt. To address this need, a multi-scale field and modeling study...
This paper describes the application of aerial photography and GIS technology to develop flexible and transferable methods for multi-spatial scale characterization and analysis of riparian corridors. Relationships between structural attributes of riparian corridors and indicators of stream ecological conditions are not well established. As part of a research project focused...
The workshop emphasized large-scale conservation planning: the networks of conservation lands that are being planned at state and regional levels across the country. Ideally, this approach will help preserve the country's rich biodiversity by protecting its most viable habitats and species populations. This strategy represents current theories on the application...
