In a changing climate, when you replant after harvesting timber, do you re-plant the same species as before, or do you plant a species you believe will do better in a changing climate?  This question takes up the first half of the work, and is concerned with forests in the Eastern United States.  The second question is concerned with the ideal widths of no-cut riparian zones in Oregon coastal forests.   These are important questions with important answers.  David J.

Were these areas representative enough of the variety of landscapes in the region that they would serve as good monitoring sites for evaluating the effects of climate change?  If so, which sites would have the best potential for detecting change over the long term? She then applied climate models to these areas and showed a growth in warmer forests and a decline in the cooler forest types.  By 2050, for example, the climate is predicted to have become changed in suitability for approximately 50\% of the vegetation currently on Cascade Head, and 100\% changed in suitability for vegetation at Cougar Creek, Lost Creek and Martin Creek Natural Areas on the Umpqua River.
