This thesis provides three essential forest management tools that resource managers and researchers can use to improve management the northern forests of Alaska. The Cooperative Alaska Forest Inventory (CAFI) is a comprehensive database of northern forest conditions and dynamics. The basis for the CAH database is a system of permanent sample plots located throughout interior and south-central Alaska. This information can be used to develop forest growth models and track long-term forest changes. The bark thickness model was developed because there was no published white spruce bark thickness model for Alaska. The data used to develop this and volume models were taken from stands located throughout interior and south-central Alaska. Analysis shows that this Alaska statewide bark thickness model accuracy estimates white spruce bark thickness when compared to other bark thickness models. Cubic-foot volume models were developed to estimate total stem and merchantable volume of white spruce in Alaska. These multiple-entry (diameter and height) models estimate volume both outside and inside bark. Analysis shows that these volume models were more accurate for Alaska when compared to published and unpublished white spruce models. These models can be used to estimate individual stem volume, volume per unit area, and to develop biomass models.

"This guide briefly describes practices to enhance or conserve features of wildlife habitat in managed forests of central and northern Alaska. Property owners and logging contractors can implement these best practices during harvest of firewood or timber, and land managers can employ the mechanical or prescribed fire techniques to enhance habitat where tree harvest is not desired or economical."--Page 5

The boreal forest is the northern-most woodland biome, whose natural history is rooted in the influence of low temperature and high-latitude. Alaska's boreal forest is now warming as rapidly as the rest of Earth, providing an unprecedented look at how this cold-adapted, fire-prone forest adjusts to change. This volume synthesizes current understanding of the ecology of Alaska's boreal forests and describes their unique features in the context of circumpolar and global patterns. It tells how fire and climate contributed to the biome's current dynamics. As climate warms and permafrost (permanently frozen ground) thaws, the boreal forest may be on the cusp of a major change in state. The editors have gathered a remarkable set of contributors to discuss this swift environmental and biotic transformation. Their chapters cover the properties of the forest, the changes it is undergoing, and the challenges these alterations present to boreal forest managers. In the first section, the reader can absorb the geographic and historical context for understanding the boreal forest. The book then delves into the dynamics of plant and animal communities inhabiting this forest, and the biogeochemical processes that link these organisms. In the last section the authors explore landscape phenomena that operate at larger temporal and spatial scales and integrates the processes described in earlier sections. Much of the research on which this book is based results from the Bonanza Creek Long-Term Ecological Research Program. Here is a synthesis of the substantial literature on Alaska's boreal forest that should be accessible to professional ecologists, students, and the interested public.
