Ecological and Economic Sustainability of the Appalachian Forest in and Era of GlobalizationWelcome to the Forestry Sciences Laboratory Research Work Unit NRS-01 Located in the heart of the beautiful Appalachian Mountains in West Virginia, the Forestry Sciences Laboratory conducts research on Appalachian forest economics, utilization, management, soils, and wildlife. We also manage the Fernow Experimental Forest for long-term silvicultural, hydrologic, and ecological research. Our mission is to develop timely and relevant new knowledge and provide management guidelines to sustain the ecological and economic qualities of Appalachian forests, in the context of changing environments and human values. The Forestry Sciences Laboratory is one of several field locations of the USDA Forest Service's Northeastern Research Station, which is headquartered in Newtown Square, Pennsylvania. Our research work unit (Northern Rearch Station-01) exist in two locations within the state of West Virginia: Princeton and Parsons.
