ACCG Monitoring and Science Power Fire Nexus Field Tour
Field Tour Goal: The goal of this field tour is to better understand and promote effective collaborative-based forest management. This field tour will provide knowledge of ongoing work and will present findings from monitoring and research occurring within the Power Fire nexus area. Some of the topics will include treatment effects on wildlife, variable density treatments in plantations, predicting plantation survival and growth, hardwood management, aquatics and meadow restoration. Discussions will provide the opportunity for collaboration on the implications of the work and how to apply this knowledge to future management in
the Power Fire.
