Several decision support tools are available for assisted migration in North American forests. The Seedlot Selection Tool currently has the broadest geographic scope of these tools, covering most of North America, and requires the user to set the acceptable climate transfer distances from a suite of climate variables.

Land cover maps are tools that provide vital information about the Earth's land use and cover patterns. They aid policy development, urban planning, and forest and agricultural monitoring. [1] [2] The systematic mapping of land cover patterns, including change detection, often follows two main approaches: Field survey
The Clouds Forest is situated 45 kilometers northeast of Shahroud City in Semnan Province, along the Azadshahr road in the vicinity of a village designated "Abr," which translates to "Cloud." This location is situated on the route from Semnan to Golestan Province in northern Iran .
The emphasis of forest migration is placed on the movement of the populations that make up the forest community. Though an individual tree is permanently fixed in a location, tree populations may migrate over the landscape through successful dispersal and establishment into new regions and/or a lack of regeneration in a portion of its previous ...
"The Northwest Forest Plan is a hugely important tool for the future of our national forests, and it needs to be updated based on the best available science to address increasing threats from ...
Tree ferns in a cloud forest on Mount Kinabalu, Borneo Stratus silvagenitus clouds in Uva Province, Sri Lanka. A cloud forest, also called a water forest, primas forest, or tropical montane cloud forest, is a generally tropical or subtropical, evergreen, montane, moist forest characterized by a persistent, frequent or seasonal low-level cloud cover, usually at the canopy level, formally ...
i-Tree is a collection of urban and rural forestry analysis and benefits assessment tools. It was designed and developed by the United States Forest Service to quantify and value ecosystem services provided by trees including pollution removal, carbon sequestration, avoided carbon emissions, avoided stormwater runoff, and more. i-Tree provides baseline data so that the growth of trees can be ...
based on the geometry of space-filling curves. They assume that the weights are integers and that their sum is a square number. The regions of the map are rectilinear polygons and highly non-ortho-convex. Their aspect ratio is guaranteed to be at most 4. GosperMaps [20] based on the geometry of Gosper curves. It is ordered and stable, but has a ...
