  5. charts; bibliography; photograph, color; glossary REMARKS:[ABSTRACT] : Twelve species of bats occur in Douglas-fir forests of the Pacific Northwest, of which nine are known to roost in tree cavities, bark crevices, or foliage, and several are closely associated with old-growth forests. Thus bat populations may be detrimentally affected by forest management practices involving the removal of large, old trees and snags. We review the life history characteristics and habitat relations of bats in the Pacific Northwest and provide information useful in managing forests for the persistence of native bat populations. - report

  11. report; forest REMARKS:Report regarding Ectomycorrhizal fungi which consist of about 5,000 species and profoundly affect forest ecosystems by mediating nutrient and water uptake, protecting roots from pathogens and enironmental extremes, and maintaining soil structure and forest food webs. Diversity of EMF likely aids forest ecosystem resilience in the face of changing environmental factors such as pollution and global climate change. Concerns over decline of EMF have centered on pollution effects, habitat alteration, and effects of overharvest. Strategies for the conservation of EMF include decreasing levels of environmental pollutants and retaining diverse assemblages of native host species, habitats and structures across a landscape.
