Feasibility of Quantifying Returns from Forest Service Research and Development Programs
Acres managed, miles of riparian habitat restored, gallons of fresh water provided, populations of wildlife conserved – all are important metrics of natural resources management and will continue to be important measures defining programmatic impact. However, it is becoming increasingly necessary, during constrained budgetary times, staffing declines, and demands for science increasing to understand and communicate the value of research and development if a case is to be made to retain (or even expand) research and development budgets.

Forest Sustainability in the Development of Wood Bioenergy in the U.S.
Forest Sustainability in the Development of Wood Bioenergy in the U.S.
Written by the Pinchot Institute and the Heinz Center
Two national priorities - mitigating climate change, and achieving greater energy security through increased domestic renewable energy production - have converged to create rapidly expanding demands on U.S. forests for wood-based bioenergy. Careful consideration and forethought is needed, however, to ensure that increases in wood harvesting do not lead to unintended consequences for biological diversity, water quality and other forest ecosystem values. This report summarizes the results of a two-year study of the challenges and opportunities for sustainable wood bioenergy, including a national dialogue involving more than 280 experts and stakeholders across the U.S. and Canada, and contains recommendations that can help achieve important public policy goals for both renewable energy and sustainable fores management.
