"Forest Management and Planning provides students in natural resource management programs with a focused treatment of the topics important for upper-level forest management courses. This text presents an extensive overview of the methodology one might use to develop forest and natural resource management plans and how to develop information to support stand-level and forest-level management planning processes. At the forest level, the text emphasizes the development of traditional commodity production forest plans as well as the development of forest plaits containing wildlife goals. Quantitative forest planning has broadened to include complex wildlife goals, spatial restrictions on forest management plans, and other advanced issues. Forest sustainability and forest certification have also become central issues for land management organizations. Thus, this text not only provides the background necessary to perform analyses of management alternatives, but also addresses broader-scale issues for the management of natural resources."--BOOK JACKET.
