Approach
Increase knowledge of rates and patterns of tree establishment and regeneration failures
Tactics
- Detect and attribute historical changes in tree distribution at the tree line
- Monitor tree establishment patterns
- Use climate change information to project changes in recreation use patterns in the alpine environment
- Expand geographic scope of enhanced site monitoring
Strategy
