The 7th North American Forest Ecology Workshop, consisting of 149 presentations in 16 oral sessions and a poster session, reflected broad range topical areas currently under investigation forest ecology management. There was an overarching emphasis on the role disturbance, both natural anthropogenic, dynamics ecosystems, recognition that legacies from past disturbances strongly influence future trajectories. Climate invoked as major driver ecosystem change. An placed application research...

Western North American forest ecosystems are experiencing rapid changes in disturbance regimes because of climate change and land use legacies (Littell et al. 2018). In many these forests, the accumulation surface ladder fuels from a century fire suppression, coupled with warming drying climate, has led to increases number large fires (Westerling 2016) proportion areas burning at higher severity (Safford Stevens 2017, Singleton While annual area burned by is still below historical levels...
