Join us for a field tour of current forest research and partnerships on variable density management in the Stanislaus Tuolumne region. The Stanislaus-Tuolumne Experimental Forest (STEF) is a USFS R5 experimental area with research and demonstration sites to support forest management across public lands in California. STEF is home to the oldest plot network in Region 5 and researchers there are currently studying the impact of variable spatial structures and insect and drought driven tree mortality. In the afternoon, we will learn about the role of master stewardship agreements and Yosemite Stanislaus Solutions, ongoing collaboration with County, Federal and private land managers to secure healthy forests and watersheds in the region.
Hope to see everyone there!!!!
