The management of forests to store carbon is becoming more and more important, but many questions remain. Are there principles to guide this management? Are there polices that will be fruitful? Which polices may prove counterproductive? How is carbon measured and accounted for? How does carbon management influence other important resources? What is the impact of common management practices on carbon store in forests?
A two and half day work shop will be devoted to these and other topics at the H. J. Andrews Experimental Forest beginning with dinner and orientation on September 29th and ending in the afternoon on October 2nd.
Participants will attend lectures and pose questions to experts knowledgeable in this field, participate in group discussions, as well as gain hands on experience in field measurements and analyses of example projects. Each participant will be provided key articles, copies of presentations, and spreadsheets for calculations.
