The issue of scale of data must be addressed if forest managers are to minimize errors when data collected at one organizational level are used to estimate parameters at another. This paper discusses the following issues concerning scale: the issues of scale regarding the collection & aggregation of data at the subnational & national levels; the effect of scale on the interpretation of data; and the implications of the periodicity of nationally collected data on subnational application of criteria & indicators of sustainable forest management. The paper also provides examples from several countries on mechanisms for the development, identification, and implementation of subnational indicators of sustainable forest management that can be linked to national indicators.

Plant species that convey information about the ecological nature of a site are known as indicator species. A wide variety of site conditions including soil nutrient and moisture regimes, forest humus types, soil reaction, and general soil type can be determined from the presence of plant species.This field guide is an introduction to the concept of plants as indicators of environmental conditions within Canada's forests. It provides information on the identification, ecology, geographic range, and indicator value of 80 selected vascular plants, mosses, and lichens. Indicator Plant Species in Canadian Forests will be of interest to resource planners, foresters, ecologists, botanists, naturalists, and anyone who wishes to know more about forest plants and what they tell us about the sites they occupy.

As global demand for forest products increases, conserving biodiversity has become more urgent and challenging. Forestry and Biodiversity advocates adaptive management � a structured approach to learning by doing � to sustain biodiversity in managed forests. It draws on the theory and principles of conservation biology and forest ecology and illustrates them, and the challenges they pose, through a practical, real-world study of commercial forestry in a coastal temperate rainforest. This book will be of interest to those who plan, or hope to influence, forest practices and the future of the environment.
