Approach
Maintain landscape heterogeneity to mitigate adverse impacts from fire and mountain pine beetles.
Tactics
- Promote structural diversity at multiple scales.
- Focus attention on collection of viable serotinous lodgepole pine seed sources.
- Use available mapping products to identify areas of potential serotinous lodgepole pine seed sources.
