Restoring the Uinkaret Mountains: Operational Lessons and Adaptive Mangement Practices
Ecological Restoration Institute. 2002. Restoring the Uinkaret Mountains: Operational Lessons and Adaptive Mangement Practices. Working papers in southwestern ponderosa pine forest restoration. Ecological Restoration Institute Northern Arizona University. Flagstaff, AZ
Since 1995, the Ecological Restoration Institute (ERI) at Northern Arizona University (NAU) has been working with the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and Arizona Game and Fish Department (AGFD) to implement and monitor large-scale ponderosa pine forest ecosystem restoration in northwest Arizona. This work has already produced many valuable lessons that have been applied to restoration in the Uinkaret Mountains on the Arizona Strip, but many of those lessons may also be useful elsewhere. This document summarizes operational lessons learned during more than five years of intensive research, and suggests how it may be applied at other ponderosa pine restoration sites in the Southwest.
