Emulating Natural Forest Landscape Disturbances : Concepts and Applications /

What is a natural forest disturbance? How well do we understand natural forest disturbances and how might we emulate them in forest management? What role does emulation play in forest management? Representing a range of geographic perspectives from across Canada and the United States, this book look...
