| The combination of important forests and wildlife and a highly engaged community, along with existing collaboration on land management through the valley’s designation under the Northwest Forest Plan as an Adaptive Management Area, brought the parties together to create the Applegate Fire Learning Network landscape. TheApplegate landscape has hosted numerous stakeholder workshops to develop objectives that optimally integrate ecological and social values. The landscape team is using The Nature Conservancy’s Conservation Action Planning (CAP)process, Vegetation Dynamics Development Tool (VDDT) and the Tool for Exploratory Landscape Scenario Analyses (TELSA) to help them collaboratively define biological and social values, measures and constraints, map desired future conditions and develop strategies and specific priority settings to attain them. The team is hopeful that its groundbreaking work on integrating BioCAP and SocialCAP to inform landscape scenarios and desired conditions and priorities in the Applegate Watershed will enhance wildland fire and land management practices within and beyond the watershed. |
