Desires to improve forest management and productivity, preserve biodiversity, maintain ecologic integrity, and provide societal services, such as recreation and tourism, necessitate a strong forestry-research base. Given the clear importance of forestry research in sustaining forests for the future, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Forest Service asked the Board on Agriculture and Natural Resources of the National Academies to undertake a study of the nation's capacity in forestry research. The Committee on National Capacity in Forestry Research was appointed to carry out the study, which was conducted to review the current expertise and status of forestry research and to examine the approaches of natural resources education and forestry-research organizations to meet future needs. 410 0$aCompass series (Washington, D.C.) 517 3 $aForestry research 606 $aForests and forestry$xResearch$zUnited States 606 $aForests and forestry$zUnited States 606 $aForests and forestry$xResearch 606 $aForestry schools and education 615 0$aForests and forestry$xResearch 615 0$aForests and forestry 615 0$aForests and forestry$xResearch. 615 0$aForestry schools and education. 676 $a634.9 712 02$aNational Research Council (U.S.).$bCommittee on National Capacity in Forestry Research. 712 12$aWorkshop on National Capacity in Forestry Research$f(1999 :$eWashington, D.C.) 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910970294403321 996 $aNational capacity in forestry research$94362811 997 $aUNINA
