Approach
Maintain and enhance forest productivity regardless of tree species; focus on functional ecosystems and processes
Tactics
- Manage species densities to maintain tree vigor and growth potential
- Prepare for species migration by managing for multiple species across large landscapes
- Maintain soil productivity through appropriate silvicultural practices
