Of a committee on forestry education in America, with H. S. Graves as chairman. The purpose of this committee was to prepare and report upon a plan looking forward to a better standardization of forestry education in the different grades in this country. The committee reported at a special conference in Washington, in December, 1911, attended by representatives from It; forest schools and departments of forestry in American colleges and universities The plan proposed by the committee was discussed in detail and action taken on matters relating to admittance to schools of different grades, curriculum. And the number of hours in each subject. The final report embodying action taken at this special conference was published in the Forestry Quarterly for September, 1912. The majority of the committee and the representatives of the institutions present at the special conference recognized that there should be in America four different grades of instruction in forestry.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Forest Plans of North America presents case studies of contemporary forest management plans developed for forests owned by federal, state, county, and municipal governments, communities, families, individuals, industry, investment organizations, conservation organizations, and others in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. The book provides excellent real-life examples of contemporary forest planning processes, the various methods used, and the diversity of objectives and constraints faced by forest owners. Chapters are written by those who have developed the plans, with each contribution following a unified format and allowing a common, clear presentation of the material, along with consistent treatment of various aspects of the plans. This work complements other books published by members of the same editorial team (Forest Management and Planning, Introduction to Forestry and Natural Resource Management), which describe the planning process and the various methods one might use to develop a plan, but in general do not, as this work does, illustrate what has specifically been developed by landowners and land managers. This is an in-depth compilation of case studies on the development of forest management plans by the different landowner groups in North America. The book offers students, practitioners, policy makers, and the general public an opportunity to greatly improve their appreciation of forest management and, more importantly, foster an understanding of why our forests today are what they are and what forces and tools may shape their tomorrow. Forest Plans of North America provides a solid supplement to those texts that are used as learning tools for forest management courses. In addition, the work functions as a reference for the types of processes used and issues addressed in the early 21st century for managing land resources. Presents 40-50 case studies of forest plans developed for a wide variety of organizations, groups, and landowners in North America Illustrates plans that have specifically been developed by landowners and land managers Features engaging, clearly written content that is accessible rather than highly technical, while demonstrating the issues and methods involved in the development of the plans Each chapter contains color photographs, maps, and figures
