The forest and the mainframe : the dynamics of modeling and field study in the Coniferous Forest Biome, 1969-1980

Creator:

Long, Tulley A.

Abstract:

In an initial research proposal of December 1969, the scientists of the Coniferous Forest Biome (CFB), an ecosystem study centered in the Pacific Northwest and part of the larger International Biological Programme (IBP), expressed optimism that computer simulations and systems modeling could transform empirical knowledge of the carbon, water, and...

Landscape Management Policy Simulator (LAMPS) : version 1.1 : user guide

Creator:

Bettinger, Pete, 1962-, Lennette, Marie, and Oregon State University. Forest Research Laboratory

Abstract:

The LAndscape Management Policy Simulator (LAMPS) model, version 1.1, is a spatial simulation model developed to provide forest landscape planning simulations for the Coastal Landscape Analysis and Modeling Study (CLAMS). It is designed to help policymakers, managers, and planners think through alternative management scenarios and their potential effects on the...
