Forest classification at high latitudes as an aid to regeneration.

Abstract

Early in 1979, the School of Agriculture and Land Resources Management of the University of Alaska-Fairbanks surveyed forest managers in a number of northern countries to identify topics of circumpolar interest in forest management. Responses most frequently centered on problems of forest regeneration. As a result, we initiated what was to be a series of international workshops to address the problem of obtaining adequate and economical forest regeneration at high latitudes. Our initial efforts were financed by a generous grant from the United States Department of Agriculture, U.S. Forest Service.
