The
second installment of Project FLOW (Forestry Learning
Opportunities for Workers) is just out from the Forestry Media Center.
It’s a teaching package consisting of a Web site and a video newsletter
called Oregon Forestry Journal. The project is aimed at educating
forest industry workers about natural resource issues. Project FLOW’s
interactive Web site (www.forestlearn.org)
provides short, informative lessons on the fundamentals of forests
and forestry. The two companion “Oregon Forest Journal” videos discuss
clearcutting and the management of wildlife habitat on forest lands.
There’s also a “break room” where users can chat with colleagues
or ask questions of the Web site host. Project FLOW is available
free from the Oregon Forest Resources Institute, its major underwriter.
Telephone OFRI at 503-229-6718, or e-mail them at Info@ofri.com.
Just out from the Forestry Communications
Group (formerly Forestry Publications) is Guide to Reforestation
in Western Oregon (Research Contribution 31), by Robin
Rose, Department of Forest Science, and Paul Morgan of the Oregon
Department of Forestry. The 50-page, information-
|
packed guide is a joint
project of OSU and ODF. It’s aimed at forest landowners who want
to know legal requirements, proven methods, and practical tips for
successful reforestation after harvest or afforestation of nonforested
land. The publication is available from the Oregon Department of
Forestry’s district offices. Call the one
nearest you to order a copy.
Here is a selected list of reprints
available from the Forestry Communications Group. You may order
them by calling 541-737-4271; or from the web site: www.cof.orst.edu/cof/pubs/home.
