Project Forestlands Best Management Practices for Golden-winged Warblers
by Matthew Cimitile — published Apr 02, 2013 — last modified Aug 22, 2014 10:14 AM — filed under: , , , , ,
Combing through habitat literature and conducting two years of surveys for the presence of Golden-winged Warblers at forest stands, the AMJV and partners developed best management practices for providing breeding habitat for Golden-winged Warblers through timber harvesting.

Project Interior Highland Shortleaf Pine Initiative
by Web Editor — published May 19, 2014 — last modified Aug 27, 2014 01:38 PM — filed under: , ,
The Interior Highlands region of Arkansas, Missouri, and Oklahoma once supported vast expanses of shortleaf pine-bluestem woodlands, as well as mixed stands of pine-oak and oak-pine which were maintained by frequent fires. Over the past century 53% of these open pine stands have been significantly altered due to forest structural changes caused by eliminating fire from the ecosystem and conversion to other agricultural uses. This caused a significant decline in several priority bird species including the Brown-headed Nuthatch, Bachman’s Sparrow, Northern Bobwhite, Prairie Warbler, Whip-poor-will and federally endangered Red-Cockaded Woodpecker which all rely on open pine forest stands with a diverse grass and forb understory.

Project Promotion of Prescribed Fire
by Web Editor — published May 19, 2014 — last modified Sep 15, 2014 11:02 AM — filed under: , ,
The use of prescribed fire as a habitat management tool is vital for many of the priority birds in the Central Hardwoods Bird Conservation Region. Most species evolved to live in fire-mediated habitats that were common prior to European settlement. Fire suppression in these habitats is considered a significant factor in the declines of many grassland-shrubland bird populations. Promotion and protection of this management practice is important to achieving the CHJV’s population goals for these species.

File text/texmacs Responding to Climate Change on National Forests: A Guidebook for Developing Adaptation Options
by Web Editor — published Mar 24, 2012 — last modified Aug 26, 2013 10:12 AM — filed under: , ,
From the USDA Forest Service, comes a recently published guidebook for climate change adaptation in national forests. It provides a state-of-science summary of principles of adaptation, methods for vulnerability assessment, and tools and processes to facilitate the development of adaptation strategies and tactics. Distributed to all 176 national forest units, the guidebook is being used throughout the Forest Service and by other agencies to integrate climate change in sustainable resource management.

File ECMAScript program Golden-winged Warbler Habitat: Best Management Practices
by AMJV — published Nov 06, 2012 — filed under: , , , , ,
The goal of this BMP is to present management prescriptions to forest managers interested in providing breeding habitat for Golden-winged Warblers through management actions associated with timber harvesting. We provide a science-based approach in an adaptive management framework to understanding breeding habitat use of Golden-winged Warblers across a range of timber harvest prescriptions in Pennsylvania and Maryland. This document is intended for use by state and private foresters, biologists, and other land managers. We anticipate that this BMP is the first document in a series that will address management of other early successional habitat used by Golden-winged Warblers including old fields, reclaimed strip mines, scrub oak barrens, and aspen cuts.

Forest Inventory and Analysis National Program
by Web Editor — published Feb 29, 2012 — last modified Jun 11, 2013 11:10 AM — filed under: , ,
This program collects, analyzes, and reports information on the status and trends of America’s forests: how much forest exists, where it exists, who owns it, and how it is changing, as well as how the trees and other forest vegetation are growing and how much has died or has been removed in recent years.

Forest Innovation Reviews (FIRz) - 2019
by Admin — published Dec 30, 2020 — last modified Mar 04, 2022 04:18 PM — filed under: , , , , , ,
The U.S. Endowment for Forestry and Communities hosts the Forest Innovation Reviews to share innovative ideas about forests, forest management, forest products, and forest-rich communities. Features short TED-talk like presentations on topics like blockchain for illegal logging and creating a new wood to replace plastic.
