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.

We're people of northern New Mexico, living in and around the upper Pecos and Canadian River watersheds. A nonprofit organization of young, old and in-between, students and retired people, office workers, engineers and wildlife professionals -- all concerned about the land. Government and private landowners need good information on which to base their decisions for the long-term health of the environment. We do ecological monitoring to help fill that gap. Monitoring is done by community members under the direction of professionals.

This Field Guide is designed to help resource managers understand the changes in procedures and processes under the HFI and HFRA. It briefly summarizes the various HFI tools that have become available. The guide does not address all HFI tools directly.
