Abstract

As the past decade has seen a resurgence of interest in Atlantic white-cedar (Chamaecyparis thyoides (L.) B.S.P.), a conference was convened in August 1997 to present the latest information in the research and management of the species. New information included, among other things: natural and artificial regeneration and growth after harvesting; genetics and seedling production; management on public lands; development of new taper equations for predicting wood volume; and distribution and composition of plant communities dominated by Atlantic white-cedar. These were reported in 16 oral presentations and 3 abstracts.
