Abstract

The 2005 Report on the Health of Colorado's Forests highlights the ecology and management of the state's aspen forests and provides an expanded insect and disease update, with a particular focus on the mountain pine beetle and spruce bark beetle outbreaks currently spreading throughout Colorado's central mountains. Both sections of the Report underscore the need to address forest management in a proactive, rather than reactive, manner.

Description

The reports describes "an annual investigation of critical forest health issues, including the identification of priority areas across the state where current forest conditions demand timely action." They are intended to "expand Coloradans' knowledge of and interest in our state's forest resources."
Reports produced by the Colorado Division of Forestry in conjunction with one or more of the following: Colorado State University Publications and Printing, Colorado State Forest Service and United States Forest Service.
Includes bibliographical references.
