Dr. Jerry Franklin,  University of Washington, will introduce core  
principles of natural disturbance and natural  development-based silviculture. 
Dr. 
Bob  Mitchell, from the Jones Ecological  Research Center, will discuss fire 
as a natural  disturbance process and how to integrate fire  into holistic 
forest management. Dr.  Nathan Klaus, senior wildlife biologist  at the 
Georgia Department of Natural Resources,  will talk about maintaining or 
enhancing  wildlife habitat. A day of lecture and  discussion at Rutgers 
University's EcoComplex  will be followed by a day of field tours. There  will 
be a 
cap on the number of participants in  order to facilitate group discussions.

The  Workshop:
Increasingly, forest  managers and policy makers are discussing  emulation 
of natural disturbance regimes as a  model for management. Using these ideas 
more  fully in silvicultural practices is the basis of  an ecological 
forestry approach. Understanding  the importance of biological legacies,  
recognizing the role of stand development  processes and disturbances, and 
appreciating the  role of recovery periods between disturbance  events are 
principal 
concepts of ecological  forestry. This workshop will integrate forest  
management options within the context of  economic realities, social desires, 
and past  management practices. We will include  presentations on market 
outlooks, wildlife  objectives, forest restoration, and climate  change as they 
relate to an ecological forestry  approach to management scenarios ranging 
from  commodity production to reserve management.  

The Partners:
This  workshop builds upon an ongoing training program  on ecological 
forestry organized by the _Conservation Forestry Network_
