This is by far the most ambitous Healthy Landscapes project. The objective of LandWeb is to define historical NRV conditions at landscape scales across 140 million ha of the western boreal from spatially explicit simulation modelling.
The output will provide NRV for landscape scale metrics such as seral-stage levels and old forest patch sizes.
No current milestones for this project

Note on relationship between landscape area and standard deviation of old forest area, and the implications of this relationship for forest management
@barryjcooke1 We can confirm that Lael has, in fact, "knocked it out". https://t.co/KaI7DxZw8o
