Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Forest Landscape Assessment Tool (FLAT) is a set of procedures and tools used to rapidly determine forest ecological conditions and potential threats. FLAT enables planners and managers to understand baseline conditions, determine and prioritize restoration needs across a landscape system, and conduct ongoing monitoring to achieve land management goals. The rapid assessment process presents a cost-effective opportunity for landowners that include local governments, private owners, and nongovernmental organizations to use ecological data to guide decisionmaking and improve environmental outcomes on their lands. This report is an introduction to FLAT, providing an overview of its purpose, methods, and implications for land management in diverse regions. FLAT is executed in three sequential phases: Phase 1--Forest Cover Type Mapping, Phase 2--Field Assessment, and Phase 3--Management Prioritization. Overall, FLAT consists of onsite visual estimation (aided by remote sensing) of ecological conditions by a trained field team to produce a forest inventory. In addition to providing baseline data and a framework to prioritize actions, FLAT can be used as a monitoring tool to evaluate changing conditions and inform adjustments in management strategies and priorities. To illustrate FLAT implementation, the King County Department of Natural Resources and Parks case study details a pilot project conducted on 24,700 of the more than 26,000 ac of county lands. King County is using the results from FLAT to develop and implement forest stewardship plans and target efforts of its volunteer restoration program. Although the tool was initially used in lowland forests in the Puget Sound region, in concept, FLAT could be expanded and adapted for use in a wide variety of ecosystem types."--Abstract

Book excerpt: Volume 2 Chapter 2 of National Forest Landscape Management deals with the application of Volume 1 principles to a specific function or area of concern in the field of resource management. The effort to produce this chapter was spearheaded by a single Forest Service region chosen for its experience and demonstrated expertise in the field. It is intended as a guide for visual analysis, planning and design at each stage of project development. This particular chapter deals with planning a utility system, the visual characteristics of utilities, the visual impact of utilities on the landscape, and technical aspects of utilities. Four examples of utility installations are provided and analyzed (a gasline, an electric transmission line, a microwave system, and a water-collection system). A framework is provided for communication among utility companies, land planning professionals, and land managers. Includes photographs, drawings, maps, a bibliography, and a glossary. Many of the photographs are of Colorado locations. (lag).

Book excerpt: Deforestation is frequently a topic of discussion in the environmental arena, but it is not just the number of trees that matters; the quality of the forest is also important. Even where the forest area is stable or increasing, there are often rapid changes in its character. Natural forests are being replaced by plantations or by intensively managed forests. Around the world, forests are becoming younger and less diverse, in both species and structure; this has important impacts for biodiversity and also affects many human values. In this groundbreaking text, forest quality is discussed as a useful new concept in forest conservation and management. Three main assessment criteria are used: authenticity; environmental benefits; and social and economic benefits. The book describes a methodology and protocol for collecting and analysing data, and outlines in detail the approach required with each indicator. The authors advocate a landscape approach to assessment and demonstrate how assessment works through a series of case studies that show how this approach can be used in many ways to help forest conservation management. This hands-on manual is for professionals involved in forestry, conservation and resource management worldwide, and contains case study material from Europe, Asia, Africa and Latin America that demonstrates practical uses of the new 'landscape' approach to forest conservation.

Book excerpt: The Forest Practices Code of BC recognizes scenic landscapes as an integral component of the forest resource base. The Act requires a visual impact assessment (VIA) as part of the forest development plan and access management plan when timber harvesting and road construction are proposed in scenic areas with visual quality objectives (VQOs). The purpose of this guide is to document the recommended procedures for completing a VIA and to identify the evaluation criteria that will be used to assess whether or not proposed timber harvesting and road construction/modifications would meet the VQOs. It discusses VIA in the context of visual landscape management and in the context of forest development and access management planning. Then it goes on to procedures: planning and pre-field trip preparation, conducting fieldwork, and preparing and assessing simulations. Appendices cover sightline presentation criteria, photography data forms, digital terrain models submission criteria, calculating percent alteration in perspective view, and photograph presentation criteria.
