This 2015 Annual Report provides information on the results of forest thinning during the calendar year 2015. Initial 2008, 2009, and 2010 baseline pre-treatment monitoring data from permanent monitoring study sites provided information on rainfall, ambient and soil temperatures, soil moisture, soil surface profiles to assess erosion over time, soil surface stability, soil chemistry, bird and small mammal composition and relative abundance, and vegetation composition, structure, and cover. Monitoring data from 2011 to 2015 provides post treatment information on the above parameters along with data on medium-sized to large wildlife and livestock for the first 5 years following thinning treatments.
