Whitebark pine is a threatened species with populations in active thinning and fuels reduction treatment areas. We are building the Whitebark Pine Resilience Network - a network of co-produced, long-term, comparable research sites - to study how forest management strategies impact whitebark pine tree health and resillience.
Learning Objectives:
Describe the purpose and intent of the Whitebark Pine Resilience Network. We hope some folks may even be interested in joining the network and/or providing feedback on our protocols!
