Abstract

Climate change presents new challenges for forest landowners, yet it can be difficult for forest landowners to access scientifically-robust information about how their forests may be affected and scientifically-supported actions they can take. Multiple resources exist to support forest landowners with management challenges – such as invasive species control, wildfire risk reduction, and riparian restoration – but these management actions also need to be modified to reflect changes in the climate. This project aims to fill this gap by providing regionally-specific, actionable and accessible science and management suggestions to small forest landowners in eastern Washington.
