Excerpt from Developing a Natural Resource Inventory and Monitoring Program for Visitor Impacts on Recreation Sites: A Procedural Manual National parks were perhaps an inevitable consequence of population growth and associated resource development, and the pressures of this growth present parks with their greatest challenge today. The National Park Service (nps) has recognized the need for effective visitor management and resource protec tion programs to balance visitation with its associated resource impacts. The recurring question, are we loving our parks to death? Increasingly challenges managers to develop and implement management policies, strategies, and actions that permit the recreational use of parks without compromising their ecological and aesthetic integrity. Furthermore, managers are frequently forced to engage in this balancing act under the close scrutiny of the public, competing interest groups, and the courts. As with other prominent and critical resource issues, managers can no longer afford a wait-and-see attitude or rely on subjective impressions of deterioration in resource conditions. Managers require scientifically valid research and monitoring data. Such data should describe the nature and severity of resource impacts and the relationships of controlling visitor use and biophysical factors. Research has revealed that these relationships are complex and not always intuitively obvious. A reliable information base is therefore essential to managers seeking to develop and implement effective visitor and resource management programs.

Universiti Malaysia Sabah (UMS) through the Faculty of Tropical Forestry (formerly known as School of InternationalTropical Forestry) have conducted forestry camp in the Forestry education curriculum since it was introduced in 2000. Every year, we bring the students sometimes two troops in a year to train them as a forester. At the same time, the lecturers and staff prepare the teaching materials and equipment needed for the camp, and of course, we teach them relatively similar content every year by the respective lecturer or expert with staff assistance. Indeed, writing this book is not an easy job when we have so many ideas but quite challenging to transform in a book due to time constraints and other commitments by the lecturers for many years. However, we got the motivation that we want the best for our students and we have experience in coordinating forest camps for many years. Therefore, we wrote this book to provide a guide and practical to the students about forestry camp for learning, forest mentoring, both theoretical and practical as a compliment in achieving forester values in the related forestry discipline, hard skills as well as soft skills. More than that, this book is also intended to reach a broad audience on basic knowledge about how to survive in the forest, introduction on some wild edible plant and non-forest resources, birds, wildlife, forest recreation as well as camping hazard management for those people who are intended for organizing camping in the forest. We hope that this publication provides invaluable insights that may help not only forestry students but also the people who love and enjoy the forest.

Stretching from the four corners of Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, and Utah, the Colorado Plateau is a natural laboratory for a wide range of studies. This volume presents 23 original articles drawn from more than 100 research projects presented at the Sixth Biennial Conference of Research on the Colorado Plateau. This scientific gathering revolved around research, inventory, and monitoring of lands in the region. The book's contents cover management techniques for cultural, biological, and physical resources, representing collaborative efforts among federal, university, and private sector scientists and land managers. Chapters on cultural concerns cover benchmarks of modern southwestern anthropological knowledge, models of past human activity and impact of modern visitation at newly established national monuments, challenges in implementing the 1964 Wilderness Act, and opportunities for increased federal research on Native American lands. The section on biological resources comprises sixteen chapters, with coverage that ranges from mammalian biogeography to responses of elk at the urban-wildland interface. Additional biological studies include the effects of fire and grazing on vegetation; research on bald eagles at Grand Canyon and tracking wild turkeys using radio collars; and management of palentological resources. Two final chapters on physical resources consider a proposed rerouting of the Rio de Flag River in urban Flagstaff, Arizona, and an examination of past climate patterns over the Plateau, using stream flow records and tree ring data. In light of similarities in habitat and climate across the Colorado Plateau, techniques useful to particular management units have been found to be applicable in many locations. This volume highlights an abundance of research that will prove useful for all of those working in the region, as well as for others seeking comparative studies that integrate research into land management actions.
