Book excerpt: Excerpt from Proceedings of the Southern Appalachian Biological Control Initiative Workshop: Asheville, North Carolina, September 26 and 27, 1996 Currently the natural heritage of southern Appalachia is threatened by a number of accidentally introduced exotic species. Native dogwood is being attacked by a disease known as dogwood anthracnose. The native American chestnut is falling victim to another disease - chestnut blight. An insect, balsam woolly adelgid, threatens Frasier fir. Hemlock woolly adelgid, another insect, is attacking native hemlock. The effects of these and other exotic pests on the ecosystem are dramatic. Another example of devastation effected by exotic species is the defoliation of oak trees by the gypsy moth, introduced by an entrepreneur who was seeking to establish a silk business in the northeast United States. The gypsy moth, a European pest, migrated to northern Virginia from the New England States. It is expected to be in northern Alabama by the year 2010. Because oak trees are valuable for timber as well as tourism (they provide much of the fall color which pe0p1e travel to southern Appalachia to view) gypsy moth has a major effect on the economics of the region.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Public debate has stimulated interest in finding greater compatibility among forest management regimes. The debate has often portrayed management choices as tradeoffs between biophysical and socioeconomic components of ecosystems. Here we focus on specific management strategies and emphasize broad goals such as biodiversity, wood production and habitat conservation while maintaining other values from forestlands desired by the public. We examine the following proposition: Commodity production (timber, nontimber forest products) and the other forest values (biodiversity, fish and wildlife habitat) can be simultaneously produced from the same area in a socially acceptable manner. Based on recent research in the Pacific Northwest, we show there are alternatives for managing forest ecosystems that avoid the divisive arena of 'either-or' choices. Much of the work discussed in this book addresses two aspects of the compatibility issue. First, how are various forest management practices related to an array of associated goods and services? Second, how do different approaches to forest management affect relatively large and complex ecosystems?
