Maybe partner with town forests to see how locally managed stands differ from the broader forest / across the region. How informative is regional analysis when informing smaller parcel management?

Focus on Forest Change.... more descriptive than research question focused. For all of the key metrics, how are forests changing over time? Consider stocking, species composition, diversity metrics, distribution of species abundance, regeneration patterns

What are the gaps in what is being collected among multiple CFI programs

Find plots where monitoring is being discontinued- see if others teams are willing to pick up where one dataset left off

without regular repeated measures we may miss changes in forest structure or function that could be mitigated or managed for if detected earlier (e.g. invasives pests/pathogens)

Provides the necessary ingredients for the allometric equations that drive our forest summary statistics.

Automatic aggregation of datasets that are linked by forest types to help link managers who are likely making similar plans.

We really can't make sweeping statements bout how individual species will respond to disturbance / stress, ... we need to understand the nuance in order to modify how we manage for different outcomes in different locations.

What are changes in forest health and how does it vary across the region

# data[].attributes.body
How are specific species faring? Are we having trouble regenerating certain trees? This becomes more important (and probably more accurate) the longer we track this information.

Long term plots should eventually show new species arriving from our south due to regional warming

Do i need my own CFI or can I just use FEMC data to help direct management

Carbon storage is important to quantify if possible, analyses of importance center on species composition change and the encroachment of forests into heathland/grassland habitat

What is the change in forest soils/soil carbon over time under different management frameworks

# data[].attributes.body
I'm really interested in how productivity / growth / regeneration have changed over time for different species and what it means for the future composition of forests .... how (or what) should we be managing for in different locations?

# data[].attributes.body
Could allow better analysis across the region of temporal changes

Age and stocking levels, by species

Growth trends by species and diameter

This is hard because all owner objectives are different, so hard to inform

We are looking to develop working partnerships with stakeholders to develop various applications of the CFI database.

What specific research question do you want to see the NEFIN project address as a use case study?

How would this analysis inform the sustainable management of
forest systems in the northeast?

What key groups should be included in this work

How could you use expanded CFI data to inform your work?
What information could aggregated CFI information provide that you are not currently getting?
