How well do we understand natural forest disturbances and how might we emulate them in forest management? What role does emulation play in forest management? Representing a range of geographic perspectives from across Canada and the United States, this book looks at the escalating public debate on the viability of natural disturbance emulation for sustaining forest landscapes from the perspective of policymakers, forestry professionals, academics, and conservationists.This book provides a scientific foundation for justifying the use of and a s 606 $aEcological disturbances -- Canada 606 $aEcological disturbances -- United States 606 $aForest ecology -- Canada 606 $aForest ecology -- United States 606 $aForest management -- Canada 606 $aForest management -- United States 606 $aEarth & Environmental Sciences$2HILCC 606 $aForestry$2HILCC 608 $aElectronic books. 615 4$aEcological disturbances -- Canada. 615 4$aEcological disturbances -- United States. 615 4$aForest ecology -- Canada. 615 4$aForest ecology -- United States. 615 4$aForest management -- Canada. 615 4$aForest management -- United States. 615 7$aEarth & Environmental Sciences 615 7$aForestry 676 $a634.92 700 $aPerera$b Ajith H$0935662 701 $aBuse$b Lisa J$0935663 701 $aWeber$b Michael G$0190946 801 0$bAU-PeEL 801 1$bAU-PeEL 801 2$bAU-PeEL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910462204203321 996 $aEmulating Natural Forest Landscape Disturbances$92107607 997 $aUNINA
