Learning from the Landscape is the story of a research institution that had its roots in the federal government’s 1990 Green Plan. In 1992, Foothills Model Forest placed first in a nation-wide competition to establish “working models of sustainable forest management” in each of Canada’s major forest regions. This model forest encompassed three million hectares of Alberta foothills landscapes and Jasper National Park. It developed diverse programs of applied science that have continued and broadened under the fRI Research banner. This book describes the institution’s evolution over the first 25 years and the relevance of its findings to sustainable resource management today and tomorrow.
The book is also available for purchase in hardcover.
