Reference stand condition - Effects of Thinning on Forest Structure important to the recovery of ESA-listed species

Description

This study evaluates the effects of thinning regimes designed to accelerate the development of late-successional forest structure for the benefit of salmon and other ESA-listed species. The focus is to ensure that proposed thinning activities (primarily by federal agencies such as BLM and USFS) do not delay the recovery of habitat important to these ESA-listed species. Currently thinning actions undertaken by BLM and USFS have resulted in the substantial delay in the recovery of instream habitat. The results from this study are intended to be provided to these agencies so that they can make management decisions consistent with the restoration and recovery of habitat important to ESA-listed species, in particular, instream habitat. Data of DF forest reference stands.
