Abstract

The twenty-first century has seen a shift in the philosophy and practice of forestry. Historic assumptions that prevailed as recently as three decades ago have been challenged in light of new-concepts and practices, developed through advances in research and lessons from practical experience. The goals of forcst management today encompass a wider array of resources than in the past, and managers are using a wider range of tools and techniques to provide them.
