The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) OR-WA is offering this grant to gather vital information on the ability of elite Douglas-fir families, sourced from breeding units across western Oregon, to withstand drought conditions. This project is for the purpose of monitoring their growth over time, with the overarching goal of improving the quality of reforestation material available for strategic landscape placement. The comprehensive data acquired through this study will significantly augment ongoing research initiatives focused on assisted migration and the broader implications of global warming, ultimately contributing to more resilient forest ecosystems.
