Proceedings Views from the Ridge- Considerations for Planning at he Landscape Scale

When resource managers, researchers, and policymakers approach landscape management, they bring perspectives that reflect their disciplines, the decisions they make, and their objectives. In working at a landscape level, they need to begin developing some common scales of perspective across the variety of forest ownerships and usages. This proceedings is a compilation of 22 papers presented at a conference that addressed divergent views on landscape management. The conference was a forum for exchanging concepts and knowledge from research and management experiences about managing landscapes. The program addressed the issues of managing landscapes when everyone has a different perspective; approaching landscape management from aquatic, terrestrial, and socioeconomic viewpoints; and characterizing landscape management.
