Incorporating Stream-Wood Dynamics into Landscape-Scale Management and Restoration Planning
Abstract
Miller will present the case that large wood is an important component for development of high-quality aquatic habitat. He will present ways to incorporate large wood into streams. He will consider several questions,including:1. How will different management alternatives influence future
wood abundance?
2. How important are upland wood sources?
3. Where are the best locations for harvest restrictions to ensure
future sources of in-stream wood?
4. Where are the best locations for silviculteral treatments to enhance wood recruitment? What should those
treatments be?
5. How do current and future wood loads compare to those that
would exist under a natural disturbance regime?
6. What are appropriate targets for wood abundance?
7. Where are the best locations for in-stream wood placement?
