Northeast Silviculture Library

Abstract

The Northeast Silviculture Library is an extension of the Great Lakes Silviculture Library, established in 2014, to northeastern North America. It is a virtual symposium of silvicultural prescriptions and their outcomes of actual on-the-ground management activities. It is a place for natural resource managers to share their work and perspectives with regards to forest and ecosystem management, for diverse purposes, including climate adaptation, ecosystem restoration, wildlife habitat management, and timber production. The library was conceived with the idea that every silviculture treatment is an experiment, every forest manager both a teacher and a learner.
