This course presents a complement to FOR Theory of Silviculture course, but with an emphasis on natural forest management rather than production forestry. The course teaches the ecological principles forming the scientific basis for silviculture and techniques of controlling, protecting, and restoring regeneration, composition, and growth of natural forest vegetation. We will use examples from woodlands and forests, as well as analog systems such as urban forests, agroforestry ecosystems, and indigenous systems worldwide. Students will learn to assess the biological and socio-economic problems affecting a range of forest types, and to evaluate the suitability of silvicultural strategies to meet ecological, social, and economic aims. We will discuss applications of ecological silviculture for management of wildlife habitat, water resources, climate mitigation and carbon sequestration, timber and non-timber forest products, urban green space, landscape design, restoration, and more.
