IFMAT-IV Report

H. Reforms and funding levels necessary for state- of-the-art forestry: How does carbon stewardship fit into tribal definitions of state-of-the-art forest management? I. Tribal risk and adaptation related to climate change. How should the impacts of a rapidly changing climate (and related disturbances) be factored into carbon market arrangements? What are the tradeoffs between meeting carbon storage goals and managing the multiple, climate-influenced risks dependent on forest density management?

J. Indian forests in the general scheme of landscape ecology and restoration: How can tribes use landscape scale management to influence disturbance patterns that pose risks to carbon project reversal and allow carbon stewardship and resilience at scales that are more cost-effective. K. Institutional capability and capacity to support landscape scale management: What benefits and costs are offered in aggregate (multi-owner) arrangements for building carbon stewardship management and marketing along with timber and other services at a landscape portfolio scale? (Think “anchor forests” for carbon management.)
