Objectives:

• Explain legal and policy implications of conservation biology and restoration ecology.
• Describe underlying ecological processes and apply concepts from theoretical ecology, habitat fragmentation, population viability analysis, restoration as mitigation, and exotic species invasions.
• Discuss temporal and spatial scales of ecosystems. Apply current concepts for conserving biological diversity and ecological relationships throughout the landscape.
• Apply, accept, and accommodate information uncertainties.

Discussions and field trips address Forest Service activities, and incorporate applicable advances in Conservation Biology and Restoration Ecology from National and International examples. Interactive discussions, activities, and field trips will focus on the perspective of participants. Participants are expected to have a basic knowledge of conservation biology.
