FOREST RESTORATION PLANNING AND ASSESSMENT FOR THE SOUTHERN PINE BEETLE AND OTHER INVASIVE PEST SPECIES

The project is currently conducted on four representative National Forests in the Southern Appalachian Mountains: the Nantahala and Pisgah National Forests in west North Carolina, the Cherokee National Forest along the border of eastern Tennessee, and the Chattahoochee National Forest in northern Georgia.

• Nantahala National Forest (NC)

• Pisgah National Forest (NC)

• Cherokee National Forest (TN)

• Chattahoochee National Forest (GA)

The specific Ranger Districts will be selected for study based on history of SPB outbreaks and the extent and completeness of spatial and tabular databases available.
