The Updated Silvics of North America Project (USNAP) is currently conducting a full revision to the Silvics of North America (SNA)! This project is a collaborative effort by the USDA Forest Service, the Canadian Forest Service (Le Service canadien des forêts), and the National Forestry Commission (Comisión Nacional Forestal; CONAFOR).
The USNAP is accepting lead author applications for all species chapters. Applications are being reviewed on a first-come, first-served basis.
In addition to the traditional authorship route, the USNAP is evaluating opportunities to develop a graduate-level symposium course to guide students through chapter development with oversight from a lead professor. This authorship model is still in development. However, you can remain current with any progress by indicating this particular interest here.
